Description cunio 2011-06-06 01:02:43 UTC 
LibreOffice is going to crash when starting dual monitor screen setup on Fedora 15 Linux.

How to reproduce:
1) start LibreOffice, load any document (spreadsheet in my case)
2) plugin external monitor to a laptop,
3) start dual screen mode, i.e. issuing a command: 
xrandr --output LVDS1 --auto --primary --rotate normal --pos 0x0 --output VGA1 --mode 1280x1024_60  --rotate normal --left-of LVDS1
4) LibreOffice disappears from the screen
5) When restarted, Document Recovery dialog box starts

How reproducible:
Often, but not always.

Andras,

I think that maybe the bugs are related, but I didn't notice any problems when opening new instances/documents of LO when LO is started after running in dual screen mode. 
I my case LO didn't crash the X server.

Solution of running LO in single screen mode is in my opinion unacceptable.

BTW, I use KDE 4.6.3

RC2 is bit by bit identical with release version, so separate items in the version picker are useless. Changes have been discussed with Michael Meeks.
