i've installed ooo 1.0.1, which works well so far. the only thing that slows down working with it is that copying and pasting text from native mac apps (like TextEdit) doesn't work. sometimes it works once, but then stops. is this a problem of X11 apps in general, or of ooo? or does copy / paste work for you? any solutions?

works for me, using either contextual menu or ctrl-x/c/v in ooo and apple-x/c/v in native apps. Specifically, TextEdit and OmniOutliner, and I think I've done it in Word, but not certain. I'm normally going from native to OOo, but sometimes the other way. I'm using Apple's X11, that may make a difference

i'm also using Apple's X11 Beta 3, so that cannot be the problem. by the way - i've got the same copy / paste problems with lyx, where it doesn't even work sometimes.

Perhaps only tangentially related, but I have copy/paste troubles with OO on both Linux and Solaris too (where I use it more than on OS X). (misery loves company?)

Same here. As long as I remember to use the command or ctrl key based on what environment I'm in, it's all good.
