Problema con OpenOffice 3.0

tenes que dar más datos, que SO. usas, versión.
también podrías postear el resultado de
¿probaste renombrando (quitarle el .) la carpeta .openoffice.org que se encuentra dentro de la carpeta /home/tu_nombre_usuario y volver a iniciar el openoffice?

Gracias por tu pronta respuesta, fedemos.
El SO que uso es Ubuntu 9.04. Aquí posteo el resultado de aplicar el comando que pediste.

Me olvidé de decirte que probé renombrar la carpeta como me dijiste y no funcionó.

Saludos.

Hola estuve comparando con mi lista de instalados y la única diferencia que encuentro es en los siguientes paquetes
openoffice.org-evolution
openoffice.org-gcj
openoffice.org-gnome
openoffice.org-gtk
openoffice.org-help-en-us
openoffice.org-help-es
openoffice.org-l10n-es
puedes probar instalándolos

si esto no te da resultado podes probar con desinstalar todo el open office y volverlo a instalar
saludos...

De nuevo, gracias por responder, fedemos. Probé todo lo que dijiste, y lo único que cambió es que ahora el cartel me aparece en castellano. ¿Puedo preguntarte, de paso, cómo hiciste para comparar los datos de mi "sudo aptitude search openoffice" con los del tuyo?

lamento que no te halla funcionado, yo también ejecute un aptitude search y comparé los paquetes instalados en mi pc con los tuyos. (solo te marque aquellos paquetes que en mi seach figuraban como instalados (i) y en el tuyo no (p)). cuando me pase de openoofice 2.x al 3 el programa dejo de funcionar asi que compare el contenido de los paquetes con otra pc, instale los que me faltaban y luego el openoffice arrancó sin problemas.

acá hay otro que tuvo un problema como el tuyo http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789660
saludos...

De nuevo, muchas gracias por responderme. Ahora me fijo en el link que me pasaste.

Saludos.

Me fijé en el link que me pasaste; la verdad es que soy bastante tonto. La solución era la que me habías dado al principio, solo que yo hice las cosas mal, y en lugar de renombrar la carpeta que me dijiste, la copié con otro nombre. Ahora sí me funciona. ¡Muchas gracias!

bueno me alegra que ahora funcione el openoffice.
saludos...
