I found a solution in the LibreOffice mailing list, which installs JRE version 1.6.0_21 and solves the slow performance issue:
(1) Completely uninstall sun-java6-bin and sun-java6-jre using Synaptic; (2) remove Partners as a source; (3) add the following two lines to your software sources: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/sun-java-community-team/sun-java6/ubuntu Maverick Main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/sun-java-community-team/sun-java6/ubuntu Maverick Main (in my case, of course, I needed to use 'ubuntu lucid main' repositories instead) (4) install sun-java6-bin. (5) in Open/LibreOffice Tools > Options > Java, select the JRE version 1.6.0_21. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/724217 Title: Very slow openoffice base after update to java-6-sun-1.6.0.24jre -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
