Public bug reported:
Everytime I start up libreoffice writer, a splash screen pops up, and as
soon as the loading bar appears with a tiny fraction of the loading bar
full, the system freezes. This happens every time I startup libreoffice
writer (thus libreoffice writer is unusable). I can still move the mouse
pointer and pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1 successfully brings me to the command
prompt.
Things I have tried:
- Using different versions of Java - I have tried OpenJDK versions 6 and 7, as
well as proprietary Java.
- Googling the problem, searching through AskUbuntu & Launchpad as well as
LibreOffice website.
I should add I get a lot of random freezing which seems to be most
prevalent when opening windows/popups (but I emphasize random - it does
not always occur when opening windows/popups, nor everytime I get some
sort of new window/popup). With LibreOffice Writer however, this
freezing happens EVERYtime, at the exact same point in the loading
process, without exception.
My System:
Linux kernel: 3.2.0-26-generic
Ubuntu: Precise
Laptop: Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E520
Architecture: amd64
fglrxinfo:
display: :0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: AMD Radeon 6600M and 6700M Series
OpenGL version string: 4.2.11627 Compatibility Profile Context
libreoffice-writer Version: 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1
I'm sorry if this report lacks info - I am a bit of a noob, but I will
happily provide log reports and similar such if needed (I don't really
know which logs are relevant and such).
