How to fix error messages when starting OpenOffice oowriter.

[Larry Alkoff]

I am getting the following error messages when I try to open ooWriter in 
Kununtu Feisty Fawn from a konsole window.  Is there any way to 
eliminate these errors?

Someone on the OpenOffice list told me it was a (K)ubuntu problem.
Possibly something to do with finding a font that is called forl.
I'd appreciate any help on tracking it down.

Starting from konsole:
----------------------
lba at kinda ~ $ oowriter

(process:6047): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: gtype.c:2242: initialization 
assertion failed, use IA__g_type_init() prior to this function

(process:6047): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_screen_get_font_options: assertion

The ooWriter screen then comes up and it _seems_ normal.
