Listmates,

I am also cc'ing this to the radeonhd list in case it is related to the driver. I have the same setup (same laptop) with suse 11.0 with the same openoffice version, but all is fine there. I am trying to determine whether this is an Arch package issue, an openoffice issue, or a radeonhd issue.
Since oo works fine on suse 11.0 with the fglrx driver, I think we can eliminate it being an oo issue. That leave the potential of it being an Arch package issue or a radeonhd issue. I don't know how to test to determine which it is.
Can anybody think of a test that could be run to narrow it down? I will switch to the radeon driver and test, but beyond that, I can't think of anything else to try. Any thoughts? --- Thanks.
Hmm..., This is looking more like an Arch packaging issue. I tested on another Arch x86_64 machine with the same setup but that box has an NVidia 8800GT card in it. Same results. I went ahead and captured a screenshot to provie additional detail: Here is a shot showing blank Style and Font Size combo boxes in oo-writer. The text in the boxes randomly comes back and then disappears again after a hover or an activate of the combo box. Note the cursor is in the Font combo-box so there is no reason the Style or Size boxes should be blank. http://www.3111skyline.com/download/Archlinux/bugs/oo-writer-disappearing-te... Here is a screenshot of the version information: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/Archlinux/bugs/oo-writer-version.jpg If somebody else can confirm, I'll write the bug report. "Where" is the issue again, arch or chakra? Let me know if you have any additional information. Thanks. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
