just for information, opening files on an iSCSI share is working, so the problem is really tight to NFS
Also as noted, a workaround is opening nfs files directly with the command
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/oosplash.bin -writer "<path to file on nfs share>"
And finally note that the fileselector is sometimes relly sllllloooowwww to discover files on local disks, but when we open start libreoffice with /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/oosplash.bin -writer, then we have no problem to navigate quickly among the file system with the fileselector.
All this seems linked to settings in the libreoffice launch script./usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice
The problem is on opening a file on an NFS volume, not on save.
Openoffice.org in karmic did not worked well either but no hard lock was observed. It was unable to open nfs files R/W because it was always complaining that nfs files are locked by 'unknown' (another known bug of ooo on NFS). Since Lucid ooo had the lock problem (bug https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/openoffice /+bug/577038 on launchpad, bug http:// qa.openoffice. org/issues/ show_bug. cgi?id= 113330 on ooo)
No other application have this problem on NFS.
