The problem is some missing library or module, related to Pango, but I have no idea which one. Did you try running other GTK2 programs? Pango or Tiny Core Linux forums would be better places for this question. In my opinion, minimal distros like Tiny Core Linux are not suitable for what you are doing now. It is like asking for trouble (which you have got already). GTK2 library + all required libs is a big amount of SW. When you install all that, your system is not so tiny any more. Why not install some mainstream distro with less effort and concentrate on "useful" challenges. Minimal distros can be useful as a dedicated server. They can revive an old, otherwise obsolete PC. I also like optimized code but with desktop GUI programs it is a difficult goal. For example, some people use a light, optimized window manager. Then they open Firefox and OpenOffice. After that, who cares if window manager is light and optimized.
