Bug Description
With Unbuntu 7.10 and OpenOffice (from Synaptic), OOo will not open or save from/to a shared network drive (NAS Hp Media Vault). Double clicking on the file located on the network drive from a Nautilus screen will not launch OOo.
Attempting the same actions with a pdf file works. (Open, Save, Launch with Evince)
I booted OpenSuse 10.3 (gnome) from a Live CD, started Samba services and mounted the network drive. OOo works normally, i.e. Open, Launch (did not attempt a Save).
This appears to be a problem with the Ubuntu version of OOo.
Ubuntu: 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon
Gnome: 2.20.1
OpenOffice: openoffice.org 1:2.3.0-1ubuntu5.3 OpenOffice.org Office suite
PC: P3 1GHz 512Mb RAM, 20GB HDD, Nvidia Quadro2 32 MB, Viewsonic VA520

I re-installed Ubuntu 7.10 (clean install with HDD format). Problem does not exist anymore. Open and Save to network drive now works.
Sorry for this unnecessary bug report.
