What do you mean by you can't open your original OOo documents?
Do you mean that you double click the document but OOo does not open
it? Try opening OOo first. Then use File > Open to select the
document. Will it open then? If this is the case, you need to change
your file associations.
Since you seem to be using Kmail, it appears you are using Linux.
Use Konquer to browse to your documents. Right click one of these
documents and select Open With. Select OOo (or one of its
applications) as the program to open the document. Check the box at
the bottom labeled Remember application association for this type of
file. Then click OK.
Just out of curiosity, what version of OOo were you using before
you updated to 2.2? If it is prior to 2.0.0, there has been a change
in the format from the 1.1.x versions and the 2.x versions. It is a
modification rather than a complete change in format. However, the
three letter suffixes have changed, so that may explain the problem.
(e.g., .sxw has changed to .odt)
