Hi Dave,

I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 now. Back when I did what I described above I 
was most likely using Ubuntu 10.10, I don't think 11.04 was out yet. My 
problem was that the first time I would open any of the LibreOffice 
suite of programs, the first one would open quite slowly. After one 
would open, everything was fine after that. I never had an issue with 
any files opening slowly.

Don
