Status bar (at bottom of window) is usually empty; occasionally the zoom bar appears but nothing else such as language, edit mode, etc. Scroll bar leaves a trail when moved and there is a line to the right of the scroll bar a few pixels wide that doesn't draw: it keeps whatever pixels were there before. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just run any OOo program. Actual Results: Blank status bar that occasionally shows the zoom bar and artefacts in scroll bar. Expected Results: Normal appearance.

Just to clarify... When I first open a document, some of the status bar elements do appear, such as language, 'page view' and the zoom bar, but not the INSRT/OVER status for example. As soon as another window or desktop covers the status bar or I resize the OOo window, then the status bar goes blank. Individual status elements can be temporarily restored such as INSRT/OVER by pressing the insert key to change the status or zooming the document via Ctrl-Mouse-scroll will restore the zoom bar.
Bug 290861 has some history about this feature. :)
I can certainly confirm this bug. This is with the latest versions in the tree.
OMG, I have some good news! For whatever reason, switching to kernel modesetting (KMS) makes the Status Bar appear correctly, even after switching away and back to the application. However, it will still appear incorrectly if I disable and then re-enable the Status Bar. It also does not fix the ghosting scroll bar and phantom pixels. But it's a real improvement! Does this work for anyone else?
It doesn't help for me. That is on intel KMS, but the problem does not seem to be KMS related either. It looks more like the path used to incorporate kde widgets is broken.
*** Bug 315389 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Any hopes?
Yes, this one may help: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/ooo-build/ooo-build/commit/?h=ooo-build-3-2-1&id=3a8e3d899865cf9a18af36d5055761e4913b366a
Will try that out. So this is an upstream issue?
You have to apply this before compile by adding an epatch function?
Like the other hotfixes you copy it to the hotfixes folder. Check the ebuild for how to.
i think it's safe to close this now.
I'll test it out and report back as early as possible, which is no sooner than Monday.
Openoffice 3.2.1 is in portage... it fixes the issue.
OK, I'll take the liberty and resolve this one as fixed then (as of comment #15 and no response on comment #14).
Hi, sorry, I was waiting for 3.2.1 to go stable. If you have tested it, that's fine, I'll try to remember to comment when it does go stable. Cheers.
