I'm getting the same problem on Ubuntu 12.04 and LibOffice 3.5.3.2 (ubuntu repositories). LO worked fine on Ubuntu 11.10.

Interestingly, the problem seems to be dependent on the monitor layout configuration I specify in System Settings > Displays. (I have a 1920x1200 monitor connected to my 1600x900 laptop). If my second monitor is configured directly above the laptop monitor such that the two monitors have their left edges aligned then the problem goes away.

However, if my second monitor is positioned so its left edge is not aligned with my laptop monitor's left edge then I can't get access to the File, Edit, View, Insert of Format menus (the other menus work fine); and LO crashes soon after I try to access any of the inaccessible menus.

A screenshot of this second configuration is available here:

In the screenshot, I'm trying to open the File menu.
