Hi,

I have a problem on Ubuntu Hardy as turox described. When start openoffice I get the messagen "javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!". There are no JREs listed in the options dialog. Here my relevant installed packages:

Even editing the ~/.openoffice.org2/user/config/javasettings_Linux_X86_64.xml manually did not solve the problem, but changed it: after pointing on the correct Icedtea path I got the message "javaldx failed. User must select a JRE from options dialog!" when starting OOo.

Please fix this soon! For me, its a severe bug, a release blocker!

Greetings, Tobias
