Fair enough. Here's how I'm reproducing the problem:

Configuration: hp nc6400 laptop, 2-GHz Intel Core2 Duo (T7200), 1-GB
RAM, ATI X1300

Boot CD: Ubuntu Desktop CD 7.04 (final) for amd64

Procedure:

1) boot from CD
2) apply widescreen workaround per comment #3 at 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/103945
3) open firefox and download 
http://xqzone.marklogic.com/conference/2004/slides/Paycheck.ppt to the Desktop
4) double-click Paycheck.ppt on the Desktop
5) in OpenOffice Impress, go to the menu and select File > Save As...
6) in the Save dialog, change the Name to Paycheck1
7) expand the File Type widget and select Microsoft PowerPoint 97/2000/XP
8) click Save
9) click Yes when OOo warns about saving to MS formats

At the bottom of the window, I see the text "PowerPoint Export" appear
in the status line. However, nothing else seems to happen: the expected
progress bar doesn't display, OpenOffice no longer re-draws its window,
and 'top' shows that soffice.bin is using all of one CPU core. I watch
the RES entry grow to 1.1-GB, then 1.4-GB.

After about 5 minutes, I try to close the OpenOffice window. Gnome tells
me that OpenOffice doesn't seem to be responding, but allows me to force
quit the process.
