Hi Robert,

This has worked for me in all recent versions of Ubuntu:

In terminal, do gksudo gedit /etc/hosts
Add line as shown below for, for instance, 127.0.0.1 galaxy localhost galaxy.(none) below
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 galaxy
4) and 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 LibreOffice.org Writer and Calc open fast when the network connection is attached.

For anyone new reading this. replace "galaxy" with whatever you have named your computer.

I'm running LibreOffice 3.4.6 OOO340m1 (Build:602) on Debian Squeeze.

The progress bar on the splash screen stops part-way during startup for about 
10 seconds. During this time LO sends a request of some sort over the network 
connection (lights flash on router) every 2 seconds, 5 times in all. LO then 
completes startup.

This happens
- with the splash screen turned off in /etc/libreoffice/sofficerc (the pause 
and network requesting still happen)
- when launching LO by itself, or when opening a Writer or other LO document 
through a file manager
- with Java RE option on or off

With an LO document already open, there is no pause when opening a second LO 
document. The pause only occurs during startup.

How to stop LO from sending requests over the network on startup, so that it 
opens without the 10-second pause?
