At first sight the issue-tracker of OO is intimidating and looks over
complex (exposes too much of its data-structure) - I can understand if
users turn away from it. Would be nice if there were something like a
wizard, that collects necessary infos (OS,Version,Workspace, all in
natural language, not in cryptic abbreviationa ...) step by step and
then present the user with a field to enter the issue ... While it's
right that a user who has an overview of the project can file an issue
in - let's say - 10 minutes, to a beginner it looks like an extremely
difficult and time-consuming task to tackle.

I have just tested OOo 2.4.1 on Mac OS X 10.5.5, without having
ever
installed some other X11 software. I also applied my patch at
http://blog.shaunmcdonald.me.uk/2008/03/ooo-possible-fix-for-the-command-timed-out-error-on-leopard/
and have absolutely _no_ problems whatsoever starting
OpenOffice.org X11!
Why don't you attach the patch to an issue or commit it to a cws? I
bet the problem would have been solved a long time ago.
I was intending on creating or commiting this to a CWS, however I
find it
far too difficult to create and commit a tiny patch like that.
Attaching a patch to an issue doesn't involve creating a cws.
Mind you with
the time that I've spent on it so far, I probably should have spent
the
half/full day required to get it sorted.
You should have spent two minutes filing an issue of type "Patch".
