open office slow under KDE in FC5

[Chris Jones]

Hi,

Has anyone else noticed that OpenOffice seems very slow when running in a KDE 
session ? If I login with Gnome it is much snapper ? Note, this is NOT some 
sort of "KDE is slow" thing (which it isn't). All other apps are fine, its 
just open office. Also, it seems able to slow done the whole KDE desktop 
somehow, which is strange. After using for a while simple things like 
swapping desktops is very slow. If I quite openoffice all is fine again.

I suspect the "KDE integration" stuff - I've had troubles with this before, 
but in this version it is built in  (I.e., I get different icons under gnome 
than KDE). I tried this in FC4 and the same thing - it just slowed everything 
down so I removed it.

I would like to turn off the KDE integration, and just use the normal 
openoffice icons - Previously I could just remove the rpm but now its built 
in I'm not sure how ?
