Ah, but  I had more problems with my Radeon machine and default driver than
anything else. That was triggered by GRUB2.

Didn't need that, thanks, it held together long enough to do the test and, in a
way, I wish it hadn't; the problem with openSUSE LO5 on this machine is just
the same in TW.

Then I thought "what else is different?" I wondered whether the fact that the
/home partition on this machine is on RAID. So I ran the tests on some backups
I keep on an external drive and found the problem still existed there. 

I also tried editing and saving from the LibreOffice version and re-opening
with the openSUSE one but the problem stayed.

I'm now going for a short break for lunch and then choose a suitable wall to
bang my head against.
