Description Luca Aluffi 2016-10-07 19:16:52 UTC 
Description:
Starting LibreOffice (any version) on macOS Sierra crashes the app if the discrete graphic card is not engaged.

When the discrete graphic card is on LibreOffice works flawlessly.




Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start LibreOffice
2. 
3.

Actual Results:  
If the discrete graphic card is on everything goes fine;
If the graphic card is off LibreOffice crashes

Expected Results:
The libreoffice should not crash.
It should also work without discrete graphic card as it did during the pre macOS Sierra years.


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: Yes.
I tested various libreoffice version.

Additional Info:
The problem arose after the upgrade from LibreOffice 5.2.0.4 to 5.2.2.

Downgrading back to various releases didn't get any better.

On Mac without discrete graphic card it doesn't occurs.

Summarizing:
Good on macbook Pro 13" mid 2010 (no discrete card);
Bad on macbook Pro 15 mid 2010 (nvidia 330M card). But good if the card is already on.

Another dup of bug 100994 ?
Comment 2 Robert Großkopf 2016-10-09 17:15:47 UTC 
Has nothing to do with Base only. I switched it to component LibreOffice.

LibreOffice maybe attempting to use your discrete graphics card, so maybe its attempting to run the UI with opengl. Check the link below for more info.

I've just checked this and UseOpenGL, ForceOpenGl and UseOpenCL are set to "false".
Maybe those flags are not taken into account.

Setting as DUP of bug 100994.

Comment 69 of bug 100994 basically comes to the same conclusion as this bug report. I will adjust the title of bug 100994 accordingly.
