I recently upgraded to OpenOffice 3.1.1, and was getting crashes on
pasting HTML-formatted text into Writer.
Changing the Java version helped in my case; changed from
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre to
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.16/jre.
This option is available in Tools - Options - OpenOffice.org - Java
(attached picture [1]).

May be worth a try if you're still facing the problem.
