[Phil Ayres <745836@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Scott, is that fix in base 11.04? I have been away from my pc for a few
days and my 11.04 ubuntu was still crashing libre office before this.

I believe that people see a crash when the system is inactive for a
while due to inactive libre office apps being swapped out. High ram
usage just accelerates the issue appearing.

This is the only app I have seen that seems to crash routinely due to
ecryptfs, so I still thing partial blame (or poor exception handling)
should be attributed to the open office stack.

Since I'm one of the contributors who has worked hard to try and
identify the encrypted home issue and has stuck with these apps longer
than necessary (I'm using google docs now as I can at least write a two
page doc without 5 crashes) I would prefer you avoid just calling this a
rant.

Anything I can do to help (simple instructions) would be useful. Debugging to this point has been impossible for me.

  3) What is expected to happen in a KDE Natty in a KDE session with the
  KDE integration active or GNOME is a Writer or Calc file untouched for
  a long period of time (ex. 1 hour+) is when one tries to edit it, the
  application does not crash.

  4) What happens instead is it crashes. This is highly correlated to
  both EcryptfsInUse and resource constrained (Memory & CPU >> 50%)
  environments. Occurs with:

  + Intel drivers, Compiz not enabled, Writer open only bug 745836
  + binary ATI drivers, Compiz enabled, Calc open only bug 799047

  WORKAROUND: Use Gnumeric.
