3) What is expected to happen in Ubuntu 11.04 is when one opens an .odp file via double clicking the icon or secondary clicking icon -> click first entry at the top, it opens it with LibreOffice Impress.
4) What happens instead is that either opens in Evince (Document Viewer).
WORKAROUND: Secondary click the icon -> Open With -> LibreOffice Impress.
WORKAROUND: Secondary click the icon ->click Open With -> Other Application -> highlight LibreOffice Impress -> check the Remember this application for "OpenDocument Presentation" files checkbox -> click Open button.
WORKAROUND: Open the file via the Terminal: loimpress -nologo example.odp

It should also be mentioned that evince is completely incapable of displaying any .odp document I have tried to open. Impress should definitely be made default.
