Re: [libreoffice-users] can't save a document

Hi Jan,

I've not had any problems with LibreOffice  on Ubuntu 11.10. I've had 
Ubuntu 11.10 installed since it came out, and have it on 4 different 
computers, but no netbooks. I running LibreOffice 3.4.5.

What version of LibreOffice are you running? Are you using the version 
in the Ubuntu repositories, or using the one directly from LibreOffice?
