Indeed, there is: It seems that the setup program does not correctly set the "Temporary files" path and OpenOffice.org is unable to create any temporary files, which are necessary for correct operation. Go to the "Tools->Options..." menu in OpenOffice.org, in the "Options" dialog choose "OpenOffice.org->Paths" and change the path labelled as "Temporary files" to "/var/tmp". You then then need to restart OpenOffice.org and it should be able to load and save files just fine. You will have to repeat this for all user that want to use OpenOffice.org, except for root. By the way, this also seems to fix the "AutoPilot" bug reported earlier. - Bartosz
