When I start xfdesktop then openoffice uses gtk widgets again. After starting xfdesktop I can kill it and openoffice will still use gtk widgets. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Stop/kill xfdesktop 2. Log out and save session without xfdesktop 3. Log in and start openoffice Actual Results: OpenOffice starts with default widgets (looks like in windows). Expected Results: OpenOffice should use gtk widgets. I'm using Gentoo, openoffice-bin-2.0.2 and xfce4.4_beta1 from ebuilds in portage.
This has nothing to do with xfce. I suggest you file a bug with your distro vendor.
