I've tried this and it is indeed the case. Can someone explaing what
LO is trying to when there's an interface up? And also how to fix it?

I know about quick starter so please don't suggest that. This IMO is a
bug.

Hi Dave,

This solved the issue for me. I had problems with 3.3.0, and did this back then, and do it with every new install I do:

*Change hosts setting in hosts file for LibreOffice:*
In terminal, do gksudo gedit /etc/hosts
You will see the following:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 galaxy

Add a line so it looks like this:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 galaxy
127.0.0.1 galaxy localhost galaxy.(none)
5) save
6) now OpenOffice.org Writer and Calc open fast when the network connection is attached.

This does indeed work for a blank calc sheet, but opening a file on
the command line is still very slow. It's actually faster to open the
office main app, enable quickstarter, close office main app, load the
file. (Or just load it from the normal file list.)


Hi Dave,

I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 now. Back when I did what I described above I was most likely using Ubuntu 10.10, I don't think 11.04 was out yet. My problem was that the first time I would open any of the LibreOffice suite of programs, the first one would open quite slowly. After one would open, everything was fine after that. I never had an issue with any files opening slowly.

Don
