Oh, I see. I thought you had upgraded to 2.6.20-16 and that it was the
cause of the problem. It appears that the cause is OOo 2.3, not the
kernel. 

If you go into Synaptic you can uninstall 2.3 and then install the
previous version. If the previous version is not listed, right click on
the one that is listed, and then on Package > Force Version. That
should show you the previous version and let you install it.
