I was using the OO.org rc1 3.01 from the launchpad repository on 32bit with Nvidia drivers but it was completely broken. All parts of OO.org crashed on startup.
I say this because this points to an interaction with the Nvidia drivers causing the breakage.
I have had to downgrade to the 2.4 version in the offical repositories to get OO.org working again - to do this I removed the launchpad repository, removed OO.org and then installed OO.org again. Hopefully I haven't lost too many settings in the process.
I would recommend downgrading back to the 3.00 version as this actually appears to work where the 3.01 bug-fixing release is broken :-)
