No. I have both SO 5.2 and glibc 2.2.3,
and the office runs fine. My kernel is
2.2.19, but it is hard to believe that
your problem is in the 2.4 kernel.

It has to be something with glibc, or X.
(I think). I just did "ldd soffice.bin".
The reported libraries were three kinds:
libs belonging to SO, to glibc, and to X.
The ones from the first group should be
OK (although ldd reports them as "not
found" :)) ). Here are the libs from the
second and the third group

        libXt.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 (0x40023000)
        libXmu.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6 (0x4006f000)
        libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x40083000)
        libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x4008f000)
        libSM.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6 (0x40134000)
        libICE.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6 (0x4013e000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40155000)
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x40159000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x4016f000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40192000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

It cannot be that you lack any of them.
So, it has to be that one or more are
different.

About X, I have 3.3.6-15, RH rpm. If you
have 4.*, could that be it? I dunno.

About glibc, I compiled it with gcc 2.95.3.

Good luck,
Minko

PS	Can it be something with the
fonts?
