Hi engless
Have you tried to Remove and then Re-Install only the application Abiword. I read at least one excellent review of PCLinuxOS 2009.1 and they had no problems whatsoever with Abiword. PCLinuxOS 2009.1 - A lovely distro . Just out on interest does Abiword even open or does it crash when to try to open it?
Good luck...
Robert
