LKBEN11135: Launch OpenOffice.org faster under Ubuntu.

Symptom

You want to speed up the launch of OpenOffice applications.

Cause

You want to speed up the launch of OpenOffice applications.

Solution

If you use OpenOffice a lot, you might want it to start a bit faster.

To get this, open the Startup Manager, click System > Preferences > Startup Applications and add a new entry. In the Command field type openoffice -nodefault -nologo. Then reboot.

This will cause OpenOffice to be cached when the Gnome desktop starts up, so starting any OpenOffice application in the future will happen in a split second. Effectively, you're moving the OpenOffice.org startup delay to initial boot-up, but you will barely notice it.
