every time i try to start up the program. just run it. both run it from the 
menu,
and a terminal (uxterm).

happens both on PPC and x86. both running sid, both with standard
installs of everything relevant. the x86 box is a fairly new install
(under 6-8 months).

sure. ASAP.

gtk2 are running ok, gtk1 also. switch and some other stuff run ok.
