Hello,

When I start up open office (amd64)
I get these error messages:

ooffice  ./CCPS-fiber-co.doc
QSettings: failed to open file '/usr/qt/3/etc/settings/qtrc'


(process:9443): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_screen_get_font_options: assertion
`GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed


The first one I fixed (?) by changing file permissions:
chmod 666 /usr/qt/3/etc/settings/qtrc


The second looks like  missing fonts or a configuration error?

In the middle of may I fixed the spell-check problem but this
font error seems to still be with me. Everything I've tested
with OO is working, but, I still get this error message to 
the terminal session when I fire up OO from the command line.


Recompiling OO does not get rid of this message.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Should be:

chown root:root <path to file>
chmod 644 <path to file>

What did you already do in an attempt to fix it? I see the forums and 
b.g.o. have many recent posts about this, don't want to duplicate all 
the questions all over again.

The results of
emerge -pv openoffice
emerge --info
would also help

This is ok. I had the same ownership and 666 versus 644. It's now 644.

I fix the spell checker as suggested with:

I] app-dicts/myspell-en
     Installed versions:  20060316(07:37:19 05/17/07)

I also set up elog, as suggested. Here is a snip from the very 
large file

Here you go:

[ebuild   R   ] app-office/openoffice-2.2.0  USE="cairo cups dbus 
eds firefox
gnome gstreamer gtk java kde ldap pam seamonkey -binfilter 
-branding -debug
-mono -odk -sound -webdav" LINGUAS="en en_GB en_US -af -ar 

and

The last request keeps bouncing by the filters from qmane....
