hallo anke,
>> if the behaviour has not changed, you should do a long click the 
>> button (yes it is a button: there is a small triangle in the bottom 
>> right corner...) and you will get the a choice between different line 
>> spacing modes.
>>
>> 1.3.5.1 will show you a pretty drop down list for it!   
> There is a button, and you can press it, but what ever I do, nothing 
> changes. Is there a trick to it?
> This is on Ubuntu 9.04

have a look at this video (the topic part is around 2:30)

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3382898532710693510

the video shows how to set it for a style, but the same trick applies 
when you set the line spacing through the properties palette

hope that helps
