Bug Description

Openoffice has started acting funny after today's update. I can't get it to work anymore. It just crashes and closes itself after showing the program's interface. OOCalc never opens and forces me to manually reboot my pc and OOWriter even appears to be opening when it just closes down. Here's what i'm getting from terminal:

rafael@mordor:~$ oowriter
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/openintro_ubuntu.bmp: Just 24 bpp bitmaps are supported.
rafael@mordor:~$ X-Error: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)
        Major opcode: 53 (X_CreatePixmap)
        Resource ID: 0x2e002f5
        Serial No: 4094 (4094)
These errors are reported asynchronously,
set environment variable SAL_SYNCHRONIZE to 1 to help debugging

My /proc/cpuinfo shows me this:
processor : 0
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
cpu family : 6
model : 8
model name : AMD Sempron(tm) 2200+

cpu MHz : 1499.009

And I'm running Ubuntu 7.10. I've also tried to disable compiz, no luck so far. Pleeeease fix this. I really need openoffice on an almost daily basis! Thanks in advance, meanwhile I'll be struggling on gedit...

Hi.
I've already figured out what's happening.. Like on my previous bug report, the errors are being caused due to my GTK theme.. This time i was using Murrina gtk engine. That's it I suppose. Everything seems to work fine with GTK. This issue's been discussed on another bug report by the way.
Thanks

Hi Rafael
thanks for the update, are you ok with closing this report and leave just the other one?, if the other point to the same issue, we could also link them, if that's the case please provide the bug number or mark this as duplicate of that one yourself.

Thanks in advance.
