Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Problem with Linux open nouveau video driver

An update, for anyone who may be following this thread, or stumbling on 
it down the track. I found that fiddling with the screen orientation 
using KDE's 'System Settings'->'Display and Monitor'->'Size and 
Orientation' made the problem go away, even if I changed the settings 
back to what they were before.

I don't have the time or inclination to work out just why this worked, 
but it might provide a lead for someone else.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Cheers, Jonathan
