The problem was that the installer set incorrect values for the displaysize of my monitor. The correct info (from XF86Config) is: Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor" VendorName "Unknown" ModelName "Gateway Vivitron 17" # DisplaySize 330 165 <- Incorrect value DisplaySize 330 240 HorizSync 31.5 - 64.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 120.0 Option "dpms" EndSection Open office works fine now.
