Steps to perform:
    1) insert a table with a fews rows. (you need more rows than whats visible
on the screen)
    2) Try to select the rows with the mouse, clicking left of the first row and
going down.
    3) The visible rows are selected correctly, but once you reach the bottom of
the window, it starts deselecting the upper ones.

It looks like there is a window scrolling problem when trying to select the rows
in this way.

Selecting the rows, by clicking in the cells and moving works ok, the windows
scrolls, and everything can be selected.

I'm using OpenOffice on three Gentoo linux computers. The issue arises on the
binary versions, and the compiled from source version. I have the problem on
version 3.0.1 and 300m9

I'm using KDE 3.5.9, and KDE 4.2 and it makes no difference. There is also no
differenz between 32 or 64bits machines. Changing the view settings to opengl
doesn't change anything either.
