The problem is on opening a file on an NFS volume, not on save.

Openoffice.org in karmic did not worked well either but no hard lock was
observed. It was unable to open nfs files R/W because it was always
complaining  that nfs files are locked by 'unknown' (another known bug
of ooo on NFS). Since Lucid ooo had the lock problem (bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/openoffice/+bug/577038 on launchpad, bug
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=113330 on ooo)

No other application have this problem on NFS.

nfs server is synology ds207+ :

Export :
/volume1/PC        
192.168.0.1(rw,sync,no_wdelay,no_root_squash,insecure_locks,anonuid=0,anongid=0)

OS: 
Linux synology 2.6.15 #1354 Sat Oct 23 01:49:30 CST 2010 armv5tejl GNU/Linux 
synology_88f5281_207+

Kubuntu natty:
mount: 
synology:/volume1/PC on /mnt/pc type nfs (rw,addr=192.168.0.49)


fstab: 
synology:/volume1/PC /mnt/pc  nfs _netdev,nouser,auto,rw,dev,exec,suid   0  0


just for information, opening files on an iSCSI share is working, so the 
problem is really tight to NFS

Also as noted, a workaround is opening nfs files directly with the command
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/oosplash.bin -writer "<path to file on nfs share>"

And finally note that the fileselector is sometimes relly sllllloooowwww
to discover files on local disks, but when we open start libreoffice
with /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/oosplash.bin -writer, then we have no
problem to navigate quickly among the file system with the fileselector.

All this seems linked to settings in the libreoffice launch
script./usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice

FWIW, there is what appears to be an identical problem on AFS mounted shares, 
see bug 40907

This has been a problem for me ever since I started using Libre Office,
which is about 2 years, I think. To fix it, I go into the soffice script
and comment out everything from "#adjust environment" through the "fi"
just before "if [ -z "$SAL_NOOPENGL" ]; then" (do not comment out this
last line, I include it only as a reference.)

I use recent versions of Ubuntu, such as 11.04, and Libre Office, as
well as OpenOffice (which has the same bug) on various computers,
attached to a Synology NAS appliance on which I'm using NFS to share
files. The problem is evident on all these computers.

I also use LibreOffice on Windows and don't notice this problem when
accessing files from the Samba service on the NAS.
