I could not reproduce this on Ubuntu 10.4. I created a folder called 
"editáveis" like you did and tried an "é" in the file name, and 
everything seemed to work fine, both by using File > Recent, File > Open 
and clicking on the file in Nautilus.

However, I've been uninstalling & reinstalling new LibreOffice versions 
manually from the .debs rather than using any PPA. My version 
information in Help > About LibreOffice is:

LibreOffice 3.3.2
OOO330m19 (Build:202)
tag libreoffice-3.3.2.2

Is this the version you're using?

Which of the three methods I mentioned are you using to open the document?

Thanks,
