I'm seeing the same thing here (Jaunty Alpha openoffice.org-impress
1:3.0.1-7ubuntu1)
I'm running Gnome (apparently with the Mist theme)
I think what's happening here is that when you click 'Open an existing
presentation' it goes down the list of presentations it has seen
Oh I forgot to mention now with gvfs fuse it doesn't not try to
reconnect to sites if they are no longer mapped in Gnome already. So if
it was from some file long ago it will just show up to OOo as no longer

Dave,
Does moving/removing your ~/.openoffice.org* directory resolve the
problem? This may resolve the problem particularly if it was due to OOo
trying to go to some website as gnome-vfs support is now disabled in OOo
and it now only uses the local filesystem (and gvfs fuse which appears

Yes removing .openoff* does cure the 'open exisiting files' of course - if
there is no way for remote stuff to get back in there then I guess it would be

on upgrades.
I guess it might still happen on documents that
I doubt there is any easy way for OOo to determine the files it is
trying to access were on a down NFS server, if the path doesn't exist at

the 'open existing files' list when you open the dialog other than to
list them because there is no way it can no if they would cause a
problem - unless it either did it in another thread and hence didn't
hang the UI or only
Ah.. so you are using Kubuntu (misread that before) and changed the
settings of the gtk-qt-engine package.

I changed the GTK theme from Use my KDE style in GTK applications to
Qt and the problem stopped. The funny thing is that I switched the GTK
theme bacl to what it was (to see if that was causing the problem) and I
couldn't reproduce the bug anymore. Very weird.
Maybe I changed something else in
This looks like a duplicate of bug 131526.
What GTK theme are you using? (Should be in System Preferences Appearance
or gnome-appearance-properties).
The current best workaround seems to be using another Gnome theme, e.g.
Human. It may also help to purge the openoffice.org packages and
