Just to chime in: the problem has been identical for me since I upgraded to FreeBSD 7 some two months ago. Any OpenOffice.org build I did (2.3.0 and 2.3.1) fails to save and load any form of documents with the exact same symptoms that you describe (i.e., the UI not being responsive anymore after trying to save or load from a file). I used the Sun JDK source build (1.5) to compile OpenOffice.org, not the Diablo JDK by the way, and if anybody is willing to look at this problem deeper, search this list to see a post of mine where I attached gdb to the running (and hung) OpenOffice.org process and gave a backtrace of where the (100%) CPU time is being spent. IIRC it was in some input filter, but I don't really know anymore. I've since moved on to KOffice, but if there's some fix for this, I'm more than happy to try it out. -- Heiko Wundram Product & Application Development
