Open a new or existing document, select "print..." from the menu. A faint transparent window frame titled "Ausdruck" (print result in German) displays, system immediately completely FREEZES (not even mouse can't be moved), fan gets louder. And that's it. I need to switch off the PC pressing the power button for 5 sec. (not even normal shutdown possible). Print preview works as expected (as long as not attempting to actually print). Normal Libre Office install without any specials: Version: 5.1.2.2 (x64) Build-ID: d3bf12ecb743fc0d20e0be0c58ca359301eb705f CPU-Threats: 4; BS-Version: Windows 6.19; UI-Render: GL; Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE) Using a normal user account (no admin). Hardware: Medion Akoya E6424 notebook OS: Windows 10 Home 1511 (German), Build 10586.318, no printer attached (Microsoft XPS Document writer is standard printer). Event log does not show any entries related to the freeze (nothing concerning Libre Office or Java). Printing using Notepad works as expected, so it's unlikely to be a printer driver problem imo. Expired version of McAffee virus scanner and active version of Avira free anti-virus installed on PC. I'm surprised: How can an application completely freeze the OS like this? IMO the problem must be closely related to my hard-/software (otherwise it should have shown more often), so if I can help finding the bug, please let me know (I'm a programmer myself).
What happens, if you disable Tools - Options - LibreOffice - View - Use OpenGL for all rendering? Could you also try with 5.1.3 or a pre-release of 5.1.4 to see, if it works even with OGL on? Set to NEEDINFO. Change back to UNCONFIRMED, if the problem persists with 5.1.3/.4 and OGL on. Change to RESOLVED WORKSFORME, if the problem went away.
I experienced exactly the same problem as described in this report. Sending any document, text, spreadsheet, etc. caused the entire laptop to hang with no mechanism for escaping the hang other than extended push of the off switch. Using Windows 10 Home Build 1511 and LibreOffice 5.1.3.2 (x64). Disabling openGL as suggested below resolved the problem and I was able to print.
Mike, Hans-Dieter: could you copy and paste the contents of your: C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\cache\opengl_device.log
Created attachment 125606 [details] opengl_device.log Attached my opengl_device.log. Next I'll try your suggestions... Additional info: This laptop has Intel Iris graphics (Iris-550 GPU in Core i5-6267U) and the device driver isn't exactly stable... crashing w/Firefox approx. once per week, usually while scrolling a document.
Disabling OpenGL solved the problem. Thank you very much!
Nice to hear :) Let's keep this open, because this is still a problem that needs to be fixed. I found a similar one, bug 99516, but it is for Linux, so I will keep this as separate. Mike: would be great to also get your opengl log file :)
If the system freezes completely, I think that is a good reason to blacklist the particular OpenGL vendor/driver/device combination.
(because such a freeze would be the driver's fault, not LibreOffice's. Even if LibreOffice would call OpenGL APIs with incorrect parameters, the system should not freeze completely.) Hans-Dieter, are you a "gamer"? Have you tweaked any potentially risky display driver settings to get faster performance from games? Just a thought...
No, I'm not a gamer. This laptop isn't particularly good at gaming. I haven't changed the graphics card settings from their factory default. Graphics driver details: Date 15.12.2015, Version 20.9.15.4352. The laptop also crashed during actual printing. I've disabled OpenCL in LibreOffice's setting, that helped. Also the graphics driver accasionally crashed with the current firefox version until I disabled graphics acceleration in fiefox's settings. It seems this driver version really is not very good. Blacklisting it might be a good idea. P.S.: I just chose "update driver from the internet" in the driver properties dialog and it is downloading a newer version right now. I'm curious whether that version will be better...
The latest driver for your platform seems to be 15.40.25.4463 available here: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26078/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-10-and-Windows-7-8-1-15-40- Just as an alternative option if LO is still acting up after the previous driver update. I'm not sure why the numbering is so much different (15.40.25.4463 vs 20.9.15.4352), but this is 100% the latest graphics driver from a couple of days ago.
Are you sure you disabled OpenCL? That is not the same as OpenGL. (Yes, confusingly similar names, even if they are used for different things. But sure, they are related in the sense that both are (nowadays) implemented on the GPU.)
Yes, I disabled OpenCL. The reason was that the system froze / or crashed during actual printing. That went away after disabling OpenCL. Some time after this the meantime I updated the graphics driver (to driver version 20.19.15.4444), but haven't so far re-enabled OpenGL or OpenCL in Libre Office.
Looks related to what you're working on Tomaz =)
** Please read this message in its entirety before responding ** To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/irc.freenode.net/#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Unable to retest to confirm if bug is still present in latest version of LibreOffice. Enabling OpenGL for all rendering, restarting it, and ultimately rebooting the laptop resulted in many menu options disappearing from LibreOffice, mouse clicks were offset by several cm from expected location. I have disabled OpenGL rendering once more and everything works, menus, mouse clicks and printing. With OpenGL disabled there is no issue.
Mike: I think the developers would still be interested in this (just paste it in a comment): (In reply to Buovjaga from comment #3) > Mike, Hans-Dieter: could you copy and paste the contents of your: > C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\cache\opengl_device.log
Contents of opengl_device.log as requested.

The Hans-Dieter's opengl_device.log has the same content as https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=125151 from tdf#99919 Mike: I submitted a patch to review here: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/48844/ the goal is just to exclude by default your driver version. Hans-Dieter/Mike: you can try to upgrade your graphic driver and give a try to last stable LO version 5.4.4 + rename your LO directory profile (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile#Windows) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 99919 ***
Mike, does updating your driver to the latest version fix the problem? https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/27412/Graphics-Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-15-60-?product=98909
