Description Eric 2016-03-07 16:29:42 UTC
After starting up, changed some cells, changed some fonts, process stuck at 100% CPU, no menus render, and cannot select cells.

When I quit the page, a blank "Save" menu pops up. I was able to hit enter (I believe it actually did save, presumably "yes" was in focus?), and the process exited. 

Same thing happened in 5.0.x (the official ubuntu package). I then tried to install 5.1.x from .deb package available on the website.

I'm on Ubuntu 15.10.

Try to turn off openGL just to test that - Calc is most definitely not broken generally....most people have it working fine so it's environment related.
Comment 2 Eric 2016-03-07 17:12:08 UTC
Ah, disabling hardware acceleration seems to make it better. 

I have a pretty stock Ubuntu 15.10 instance running on a recent Asus laptop, Intel i7 processor, 4GB RAM, no fancy graphics card. Should I file a new bug about hardware acceleration? 

"Environment related" seems to gloss over the fact that 5.1 was unusable with pretty common software/hardware in the default settings.
Comment 3 Joel Madero 2016-03-07 17:13:26 UTC
No need - we're aware of openGL issues....just need to find the duplicate so we can close this one. There are a handful of these types of bugs.
Comment 4 sophie 2016-03-07 17:23:16 UTC
Hi, I got an Asus laptop too with LO 5.1.0.3 and cannot reproduce with hardware acceleration checked. Is it with a brand new document or an existing one? Sophie
Comment 5 Joel Madero 2016-03-07 17:30:16 UTC
If we're going to do that - also might as well list your graphics card (even if everyone has Asus...the graphics card is not necessarily the same)
Comment 6 Eric 2016-03-07 17:32:34 UTC
Uh oh, the issue is back after I disabled HW accel. It just took about 5 minutes of editing and now I don't have menu rendering again. It happened after I tried to change a stubborn Liberation Sans font back to the font I'm using (which is perhaps a different, less severe bug? I set the whole document to Fira Sans).

How did you install 5.1? PPA or from libreoffice.org?

Sophie -- I think maybe the hw-accel setting didn't propagate until I restarted my computer. I just restarted for something unrelated and I can't reproduce anymore.

Joel -- I installed from the website. 

LibreOffice 5.1.0.3 5e3e00a007d9b3b6efb6797a8b8e57b51ab1f737



Anyway, I'll mark this is a duplicate of #94691. Is that right?

It's *highly* suggested to use ppa with Ubuntu.
