When I launch ooffice, the splash screen is wrong. It shows Office.org 3 on the left and Open on the right, as if the picture had been cut in half and inverted. I'll join a snapshot if I can. It's the source version : app-office/openoffice-3.0.0 USE="cups dbus gstreamer gtk java ldap nsplugin opengl pam -debug -eds -gnome -kde -mono -odk -templates" Reproducible: Always

Created attachment 173506 [details] Distorted splash screen I have the same issue with OO. [ebuild R ] app-office/openoffice-3.0.0 USE="cups gtk kde opengl pam -dbus -debug -eds -gnome -gstreamer -java -ldap -mono -nsplugin -odk -templates" I know the OO 2.x line had a custom splash image for Gentoo builds. Perhaps when the splash was changed it was corrupted?
It appears that the /usr/lib/openoffice/program/intro.bmp file has a curious size : 441x286. This size is incorrectly handled bu the splash screen. I converted the file to 444x288 and it is correctly displayed. Other size also works but then the progress bar is not quite good looking.

Well I also have the splash in the "wrong" size and it displays just fine here, so I guess something else must happen here too.
Could it be that all of you have a 16:9 resolution? See upstream bug for more information: http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=95472

I do not have a computer with a 4:3 aspect ratio screen to test it on.

does anyone still get this? Never seen it myself, so....

Ok, thanks for reporting back - closing!
