also running hardy amd64 2.6.24-19-generic
when i boot into a secondary test account that i made since OO.o went bad, everything's fine
from my primary account i can "sudo soffice" and it works, but if i "sudo soffice -write" i get the same locking assertion failure
when i boot into 2.6.22-15-generic [leftover after upgrading from gutsy] OO.o works, though my video drivers are screwy
a few minutes ago there was a new series of updates, including one for the kernel, and two others that sounded related. i applied them, rebooted, no luck. sorry i'm not terribly helpful on what these last three were, i was too busy being excited to see what looked like fixes to write down what they were.
