Bug Description
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
Since upgrade to V 2.4 of Oo package for Linux (Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron... the latest verstion and it is up-to-date regards package updates) the word processor screen keeps flashing when text being keyed in , when attempting to select menu items or the menu bar icons. It is really annoying and whilst I've tried to ignore it when typing, when trying to select a menu item it is almost impossible to use. Not noticed any problems with other software on my ASUS eee PC (Laptop). Thus far not used any other parts of Open Office suite so can't comment on those. My main use is Oo WP.
Hope you can fix soon. Otherwise I'm going to have to switch to alternative software.

Does the version in hardy-proposed 1:2.4.1-1ubuntu1 work any better for you?
Thanks,
