This is a known item. It appeared with xorg-7.4 because certain functionality has been added to the Xorg libraries but not (yet) to the server. In all other cases where this has appeared, it has been eventually disgnosed as "annoying but harmless". Unless hard evidence to the contrary appears, look for problem elsewhere. It also - as far as I know, and I am not an expert - has nothing to do with this: > > (soffice:2726): Gtk-WARNING **: GtkSpinButton: setting an > > adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated which is only a warning. (But should still be investigated and fixed.) Robert Huff
