Hi Tom,
Open a terminal and launch /opt/LibreOffice4.4./program/soffice
Watch any output on the terminal.

Oh, and don't forget to stop any "quick starter" instance of some
LibreOffice installation, particularly while running an installation. I
use to disable this useless anti-feature alltogether
(menu:Tools>Options>Memory>"Systray Quickstart").

Greetings,
Andreas Säger
