Laurent:

I will refer you to the French OpenOffice.org site and will forward your 
problem one of the members 
of the OpenOffice Mac OS X porting team that may be able to assist you.

The French language site is http://fr.openoffice.org and there is a user help 
list there [email protected]

I am sorry that I could not assist you.  However, I still feel that there is 
something wrong with your 
system and not with OpenOffice.org

James McKenzie
