Unable to start openoffice presentation

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start xmonad with xinerama
2. Open a oo impress presentation
3. Press f5 or the menu/button to start a presentation

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The expected output is for the presentation to either take over the screen
or atleast open a new window with the presentation contents.

Instead, nothing happens. The screen remains unchanged.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

xmonad 0.8.1, on ubuntu 9.04, but this problem also occured with 8.10

openoffice is 3.0

Are you using an xmonad.hs?  Please attach it and the output of "xmonad
--recompile".

xmonad --recompile has no output.

Please provide any additional information below.

With ooimpress 3.0.1 could not find any settings which would work with any 
xmonad config.

With ooimpress-3.1.1 and darcs xmonad/contrib using default xmonad.hs: F5 and 
other
methods of starting slide-show worked intermittently on xinerama two screen 
config.
While sometimes it worked normally, mostly it went into presentation mode, but 
only a
black screen was shown. The first slide was shown after moving forward one 
slide then
back. This was with ppt or odp format presentations.

What Works: With ooimpress-3.1.1 Activating "Presentation always on top" in 
Slide
Show > Slide Show Settings made the presentations work correctly always, 
however,
regardless of what screen was set for display in Slide Show Settings they are 
shown
on the currently active monitor.

Can anyone else confirm that recent versions of ooimpress no longer have this 
issue?
