You can check where your backup files for OOo reside by opening OOo and checking: Tools|Options|OpenOffice.org|Paths| and look at 'Backups' and 'Temporary files'. Typically the 'Temporary files' is set for /tmp. Unfortunately, /tmp is cleaned on shutdown/reboot. However, you may get lucky and the file may have been preserved there, so have a look. If you want to avoid this in the future, change the 'Temporary files' path so something a little more permanent (perhaps 'OOobackup'). Now go down to 'Load/Save|General and adjust your save settings to include 'Always create a backup copy'.
