I am experiencing a strange Coot crash issue on some of my Linux

I can run Coot 0.5.2 or 0.6-pre1 with no issues on my Q9300 quad-core
machine, but on any of my Pentium 4 workstations I get this crash on
startup. Coot 0.5.0 runs fine on the Pentium 4's, so it's an issue that
developed with 0.5.2 and later. I'm a bit mystified.
Hello Roger,
I have not seen this before. I don't recall changing anything in this
area.
As a work-around you can comment out tips.scm in
xxx/share/coot/scheme/coot.scm
That might do the trick.
or add to your ~/.coot file
(no-coot-tips)
To give details in the crash report please turn on core dumping before
running coot.
