Hello, I am having troubles running OpenOffice.org builds, either native FreeBSD builds v2.4 and v3, or the Linux build running with the emulation layer of FreeBSD. So, everytime I start OpenOffice, it popups the "first-time" wizard (asking me for my names, to accept the license, and to register). When quitting & relaunching the app, it shows up again. Then, I can't use keys like backspace, delete, the arrows, etc. When running as root, there is no such problems, everything works fine. My users are authenticated against an LDAP directory (with PAM), and their home directories are mounted via an NFS share. I tried to copy the /root/.openoffice.org directory to my home directory, and then it worked fine with my user. So I guess it's related to the profile created by OOo when it runs as a normal user, or maybe when the home directory is located on an NFS mount. I did compare the two trees, I attached a diff of them. The left column is the root's .openoffice.org directory, the right one is my user's one. I'm not sure it's FreeBSD-related, as the Linux binaries produces the same problems (still running on FreeBSD). Any informations would be appreciated to help me debug this out. -- Thomas Lecomte
