Suffering from this issue too (files in recent list on slow/unavaiable NFS shares). Temporary workaround at #11 helped me for now, thanks.

Very often Inkscape freezes at opening, even if empty. We have the same problem in Ubuntu 10.04. Since I hadn't noticed it up to recently (1 month or so) it's possible that it is due to a modification in another package than Inkscape, for instance a library. But Im' not an intensive user of Inkscape. Steps to reproduce the problem: choose in the general menu Applications → Graphics → "Inskape Vector Graphics Editor". What happens: Inkscape is launched but, often clicking any button has no effect, resizing the window doesn't resize the inside. After a while, Inkscape's window is greyished and, if I close it, I first get a "The window 'New document 1 - Inkscape' is not responding." message. Relaunching Inkscape never solves the issue. Login out and in sometimes solves it, sometimes not. What is expected to happen: that Inkscape respond to clicks.
