Why does openoffice keep shutting itself down?
So, I've been using OpenOffice on my macbook for probably the past 5 weeks or so with no problems. After I installed x11, everything has been running like a dream...
Until tonight that is...
Every time I open OpenOffice it just shuts itself down, leaving only x11 open. No matter how I go about openings, with a blank document or a previously written document, it just shuts down.
Has this ever happened to anyone before? What should I be looking for to get to the root of my problem?
Thanks.

Launch an xterm and run OOo from the command line. "oowriter", or something like that. Watch for error messages.
Additionally, run the Console app and see if it has anything interesting.
