I used StarOffice once and had the same problem as you. The workaround I
came up with was to export the .eps file twice in a row from
StarOffice... then it worked

I use tgif, and I agree that the interface is a bit crude to say the least
:-) It works for me however, and I especially like being able to do
superscripts and subscripts with keyboard shortcuts in the text.
So even though there is a method to include equations written in latex, I
haven't had to do that yet.
At the TGif homepage:
http://bourbon.usc.edu:8001/tgif/
you can find documentation and FAQ.
Here's an example of an equation you can write with a tutorial of how to
write it in pure text-mode:
