This behavior seems to indicate some sort of failed network connection. Oo must be trying to make a network connection for some god-awful reason. Maybe do a wireshark packet trace? Not sure about the image issue. I had to reinstall googleearth today because some recent (gentoo) updates shook things up. It was complaining about its bundled libpng.so being the wrong version. Again I suggest strace, or maybe just try launching Oo from an xterm so that you can see any stderr messages in the shell. I would be happy to look at your strace output. But I won't be able to give it the attention it deserves until tonight. Why not get a new strace with the 3 minute wait and image problem. I realize it will be huge; that's fine.
