I have discovered that sometimes this issue doesn't appear. As I can use 2 different ISP, I've discovered that there is a problem only with one of them : Orange (french ISP) and its Livebox. And no problem with Free (another french ISP) and its Freebox.
Both of these equipments are used as DHCP servers and give a DNS to the machine. The matter is that the Livebox gives itself as DNS and that it isn't capable to forward IPv6 DNS request to external DNS. So after a timeout it forwards an IPv4 DNS request which is finally OK. This wait until timeout is responsible of the delay when opening first document in OOo.
Then I have solved my problem by using static address and DNS for eth0.
BUT :
1/ why does OOo send a DNS request when opening a document ???
2/ what change in Lucid or in OOo 3.2 can explain why there is such an issue now and not before (Karmic + OOo 3.1) ???
3/ Does anybody know if such an issue has already been reported about IPv6 and Lucid ? As far for me I don't see anything by looking for "Lucid IPv6" in "bugs" on Launchpad...
