You might try creating a new user and seeing if that user can open it, just to make sure it's not related to settings for existing users. I would use apt-get to purge the removal of libreoffice, then manually remove any leftover libreoffice directories I could find, then reinstall libreoffice. After that, I'm out of ideas, and like you, would be asking on this list. -- Kent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
