Sorry but I do not see the point of reporting here it crashes if you do not try to check what is the problem, it might have been very well a problem in *your* system or a problem that is easily fixable. kword, kspread open here a new document without problem, yes they crash from time to time but not when you open a blank new document. Also, you are using sidux, AFAIK it should not be very far from Debian unstable but that packages are for a pure Debian unstable instalation (FWIW, they also fine in my netbook with testing).
