To clarify again: This is first and foremost a Xorg/driver bug. As the report claims this worked with Ubuntu 14.04 and presumably LibreOffice 4.2.x, but did not with Ubuntu 15.04 and presumably LibreOffice 4.4.x, it might be helpful to fix the bug in Xorg to test LibreOffice 4.4.x from the LibreOffice 4.4.x ppa on Ubuntu 14.04:

While there might be a bug in LibreOffice too, there is nothing in this bug report currently indicating that to be the case at this point. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1468664 Title: Libreoffice crashing the whole session in 15.04 Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: [Impact] I've looked around but couldn't find any bug post related to this issue, so I'm posting a new. Libreoffice is known to crash the entire session on certain AMD configurations, mine happens to be one of them. AMD A6-6310 APU w/ AMD Radeon R4 and R5 M230 graphics. Libreoffice worked perfect on 14.04.2 last time I checked, on 15.04 it's unusable due to the crash. Whenever it happens I get: starting version 219 [drm:radeon_acpi_init [radeon]] *ERROR* cannot find a backlight controller and the whole session crashes. [Test case] I've tried also other distributions and kernels. Kernel 3.18 on Manjaro Xfce seems to be unaffected. Previous versions on Ubuntu as well. Kernel 3.19.*+ on Ubuntu and Fedora are also affected. Antergos didn't even boot from the LiveCD because of this.
