I do not have this problem using Ubuntu 8.04.1 (fr). I think it is more a problem of fonts or something like that, than a problem from openoffice...
Thanks for the backtrace but it has no information: do you have installed the packages I gave? If yes, try to install theses packages and to get a new backtrace: sudo aptitude install openoffice.org-base-core-dbgsym openoffice.org-core-dbgsym openoffice.org-gnome-dbgsym openoffice.org-gtk-dbgsym -- OO crashes/hangs in dialog "Insert Footnote" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/283114 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
