Thanks for the helpful ideas. At the moment, I am trying to reproduce the crash while logging events through strace, but still to no avail. From memory, the crash happened mostly with a particular odp file I had to finish, but recently it also happened when I opened someone else's ppt and yesterday just before I sent out my cry for help, it crashed on me just after removing all but one slide from the odp file I used previously and pasting a couple of images, i.e. within 5 minutes of opening it. No crashes since. I'm sure it will crash again when I actually need to get something done urgently. At least you gave me a few hints what I can try to get it to do the job when I need to. I'll report when I encounter another crash.
