Comment 2 for bug 523761

I'm not a super skilled linux user, but I had this problem too and solved it. If you go and look in the folder '/usr/share/applications/openoffice.org3-startcenter.desktop' you'll see that it's a link that's broken. I was able to see where it was supposed to link to by looking at the file properties. Went and checked there and sure enough that file was missing. Must not be part of OOo 3.2. So I copied one of the .desktop files their and put in the command 'soffice' (assuming that is startcenter) and renamed it "startcenter.desktop" That fixed the broken link and now zeitgeist-daemon is running. The only things showing in activity journal are from today. But my guess is it will start tracking from today forward. I had Activity journal working just fine until I upgraded to OOo 3.2 ... I missed it so I got down fixing it today! I hope this helps someone!
