On my system, launching from the icon seems to be failing with an uninitialized window. If I launch it from a console, sometime I see that same problem, sometime I get the black window Paul described, and occasionally it works properly.
So I think we're all seeing the same issue, it's just that the symptoms can vary. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1300283 Title: LibreOffice does not start in a KDE 4 session To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1300283/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
