I just did my Xorg upgrade, which included an upgrade of OpenOffice.org to version 2.2.1. Now, when I launch OO, it complains not at all, but opens no windows. It doesn't take much time: > time openoffice.org-2.2.1 0.727u 0.267s 0:02.06 47.5% 301+915k 1+0io 0pf+0w > The shell wrapper (/usr/local/openoffice.org-2.2.1/program/soffice) is definitely running soffice.bin. But the binary does nothing except return an exit value of 78, which is *not* trapped by the shell wrapper. And I don't know what 78 means. I've seen some hints in other operating systems' forums that OO does strange things when fonts with questionable metrics are installed, so I've uninstalled a bunch of things that I can probably do without, and replaced the rest with `portupgrade -fR xorg-fonts-7.2`, to no avail. Running soffice.bin in an strace produces gobs of output that I don't know how to interpret. The last few "useful" lines from strace refer to libraries like libglib, libiconv, etc, so I've reinstalled glib2 and libiconv and some others, also to no avail. I'm in 6.1-RELEASE-p17. Java (diablo-jdk1.5.0) works standalone, TTF fonts work in other apps, and OO was built with these in /etc/make.conf: WITH_EVOLUTION2=yes WITH_TTF_BYTECODE_ENABLED=yes WITH_SYSTEM_FREETYPE=yes Any suggestions? Has anyone else seen and solved this? Thanks. -- Paul Chvostek
