[Solved?] Impress crash on dual monitor configuration

Post by stelinux »

Hi, I've found that Impress 2.3.1 used with a Xorg configured below in order to put program on Monitor0 and presentation on Monitor1 (separated screen) crash at 90% while at 10% show it correctly.
Impress 2.3.1 is compiled on amd64 with NO custom flags, I use nvidia graphics card and with Twinview it work is OK. Xinerama flag is disabled as XRandr requested. Xorg tested are 1.3 and 1.4 and they work OK with other programs in this dual monitor mode.
I start Impress on console but only a Badwindow Error major code 181 minor code 12 obtained.

Anyhow know if it is my Impress that is bugged or it is a general bug that become corrected in future version?

Many thanks

Which Linux distribution are you using? Did you compile OpenOffice.org yourself? I suggest downloading the binaries from http://download.openoffice.org
* Did you solve your problem? Do others a favor: Post the solution
* Visit OpenOffice.org Ninja (blog) and OpenOffice.org Ninja Wiki for news, previews, troubleshooting, etc.
OOo 3.0.X on Fedora 9 + XP
