[Björn Michaelsen (bjoern-michaelsen)]

Not reproducable here on Ubuntu 15.04 with LibreOffice 4.4.4~rc3 from the ppa. Also the stacktrace suggests this to be a problem in the Xorg drivers, not in LibreOffice itself.

[Rolf Leggewie (r0lf)]

Works fine for me in trusty.

I unset the incomplete status since there is no open question for the original reporter to answer.

[Björn Michaelsen (bjoern-michaelsen)]

Well this needs a reproduction scenario. Otherwise this needs to closed as invalid.
