OO 1&2 crash if menu clicked

Bug Description

The latest versions of OpenOffice 1.x and OpenOffice 2 in Kubuntu Breezy are
both showing this bug.

If I click any heading on the OO menu other than Help, instead of expanding the
menu for me to select the option I want, OO crashes with an "unrecoverable
error" every time. I can use the toolbars and do things like save and open files
etc., it's just using the menu which is broken. It's strange that selecting Help
doesn't cause the bug, but all the other headings do.

To reproduce:
1. Start either OpenOffice 1.x or OpenOffice 2;
2. Select either File, Edit, View, Insert, Format, Tools or Window from the menu.

Same issue here...and last updates seem to do nothing. I'm running Ubuntu Breezy.

Here is a quick hack to solve things....
Just downgrade libx11-6 from breezy to hoary (no dependancies problem here).
To get the file go to packages.ubuntu.com
NOTE: THIS SOLVED ALSO THE ANNOYNG CTRL-KEY BUG IN GNOME.... (THX TO PEPLE WHO
POST IN THE FORUMS)

Can you guys reproduce it using the last xorg upload? (-21 is the version to
use). It fixes the crashes
(both oo and oo2) for me.
