OpenOffice 2 (impress) and PowerPC hangs.

I'm running Kubuntu Breezy on a G3 iBook (600 MHz, 384 Mb), and I'd like
to be able to use Version 2 (well 1.9.129) of OpenOffice impress, but if
I take an existing OO 1 (.sxi) presentation and try to edit it,
OpenOffice2 hangs up immediately (no buttons respond, the window contents
do not refresh) and the only things I can do are to kill it with
Ctrl-Alt-Escape or from a command line.

Has anyone else had this problem (or not had this problem)? Is it PPC
specific (i.e. most likely endianness related) or more general.

Many thanks for any pointers
	James
