Comment 1 for bug 1001083

mint maya cinnamon rc (installed from cinnamon dvd with updates installed as of 5/18/12 9amPDT)

libreoffice (writer) freezes entire desktop session often (session stops responding to mouse clicks and "normal" keyboard characters, though alt-F-keys still work to switch to console).

occurs when libreoffice menus and modal boxes are up; possibly also at other times as well.

may be related to the discussion at http://us.generation-nt.com/answer/cinnamon-desktop-help-207433731.html describing incompatibilities between clutter version and cinnamon?
