    I had a similar problem. I use Debian and when I changed the settings
    and run Abiword The page was stationary but the frames were jumpy. We
    finally discovered that my new settings file owner was correct, the
    group was a nonexisting one. So Abiword was having difficulty trying to
    read a file witout permission. When we changed the group to the correct
    group problem solved.
