When I attempted a slide show, using a dual monitor setup, the three files I 
have tried crashed Impress. I was not in front of an audience, simply verifying 
that the files would work on OO 4.1. The files displayed correctly in Impress 
editing mode, but crashed Impress in slide show mode. he files had displayed 
correctly on OO 3.4.1 - they live on my presentation machine and had not been 
edited under OO 4+ (yet). I tried one save from OO 4.1 and the new file also 
crashed. 

I'll investigate further tomorrow. I'll also try OO 4.1.1 snapshot, to see if 
the various graphics adjustments made there might cure the problem. I'll find a 
sample file to upload to Bugzilla and also try a new User Profile.
