** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: openoffice.org
  
  Linux wilbert-desktop 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Wed Apr 1 20:57:48 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
  openoffice.org 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3(jaunty)
  
  After upgrading from ubuntu 8.10 to 9.4, starting openoffice writer will
  freeze the system, the mouse will still move but stutters. Music will
  keep playing but stutters. Nothing will work but a hard reset.
  
  The following item seems related but didn't help me:
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/319700
  
  The system will freeze with other actions in ooffice tools, for example:
    openoffice calc -> Tools -> Options -> OpenOffice.org -> Java-> parameters
  
  Opening a fileof  RTF type will show the contents, doing anything will cause the freeze
  Opening ODT will show an empty oowriter screen and freeze immediately
  
  Editing section "Device" in xorg.conf prevents the freeze when using
  Driver "vesa" in stead of "ati" or add Option "NoAccel" "true".
