With OpenOffice 2.0.0 and now 2.0.1 the zoom window has text missing from the first three options. OpenOffice was compiled from sources. You can see what what I mean here: http://www.electron.me.uk/pics/OOoZoomText.png # emerge --info Portage 2.0.54 (default-linux/x86/2005.0, gcc-3.3.6, glibc-2.3.5-r2, 2.6.15-gentoo-r1 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.15-gentoo-r1 i686 AMD Athlon(TM) XP 2500+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.14 dev-lang/python: 2.4.2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.10 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://mirror.ovh.net/gentoo-distfiles/ http://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo/ http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/gentoo/ http://gentoo.modulix.net/gentoo/ http://gentoo.mirror.solnet.ch" LINGUAS="en_GB" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 3dnow X acpi alsa apm arts audiofile avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bzip2 cdparanoia cdr crypt curl doc dvd dvdr dvdread eds emboss encode esd exif expat fam ffmpeg flac fortran gd gdbm gif glut gpm gstreamer gtk2 hal idn imagemagick imlib ipv6 java jpeg kde kdeenablefinal lcms lesstif libg++ mad mikmod mmx mng motif mp3 mpeg ncurses nls nsplugin ogg oggvorbis opengl oss pam pcre pda pdflib perl png postgres python qt quicktime readline sdl spell sse sse2 ssl svga symlink tcltk tcpd tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode usb vorbis win32codecs wmf xine xml xml2 xmms xv xvid zlib linguas_en_GB userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS
Could be a problem with some missing strings in the en_GB translation, at least it doesn't happen with en_US here, maybe you can try with this one and see if that helps?

That's no big surprise as you obviously emerged it with LINGUAS="en_GB", so en_US wasn't even built, so you can't activate it now ;) So if you want to try out if it is better with en_US you will have to re-emerge openoffice unfortunately... (with LINGUAS="en")
(In reply to comment #3) I posted this problem on the gentoo forums about a month ago and didn't get a single "me too", I can't believe I'm the only one with LINGUAS="en_GB" so my guess is that this isn't the problem (plus I don't really want to recompile OpenOffice :-). It must be something particular about my system but I've no idea what :-/ In any case, thanks for your suggestions. -- Geoff
Ok, so not a lot we can do here anymore, closing
