Just to clarify, when you say upgrade Ubuntu, do you mean to 12.10?  Also, is there a certain time frame (after 5 minutes, for example), or after making a certain amount of changes?

Are you still able to modify the document by adding or deleting text?
Comment 2 timoap 2013-02-05 15:12:37 UTC
i have put some answers alongside your  questions .
there is also an intermittant problem that when i try to select text within
a table the screen blanks out, release the mouse button and the screen is
back on.....

Likewise for me, with Libre Office 3.6.6.2 on Ubuntu Linux 12.10 on an Intel 4-core Core(TM) i5-2430M CPU. Usually everything works for a time , and then some commands such as Table/Convert/text to table... are grayed out, while others that appear normal fail to function when selected.

Hi, I cannot confirm this, but I'm using Ubuntu 12.04. Can someone else can test this?
Comment 5 Brenda Granados 2013-02-25 20:02:43 UTC
Sorry it's taken me long to respond. Have you had the chance to test this using LibreOffice 4.0 to see if the problem still persists? If you are able, please let me know the results. If it is fixed, that's good. If not, I will use your input as basis to change this bug to a confirmed NEW.
Comment 6 timoap 2013-03-01 13:25:23 UTC
Hi, I installed the latest  version last night and experienced a few
teething problems to begin with, but it all seems to be working very well
at present.
After posting the initial bug report I installed version 3.6.5.2; there
were no intermittent problems with that version.   How ever I had a lot of
intermittent problems with the screen blanking off when  I pressed the left
mouse button.  I have only used version 4 a couple of time and so far I've
had no problems.

Comment 8 timoap 2013-03-04 15:11:40 UTC
New development
I've changed my operating system to LINUX MINT 14 and am using LIBREOFFICE
3.6.2.2.  There do not seem to be any of the problems that I experienced
using UBUNTU 12.10 whatsoever.
I think the problem lay with Ubuntu.... I had several crashes followed by a
message UBUNTU HAS EXPERIENCEd AN INTERNAL ERROR
