Nick: Thanks for the suggestions. It's looking like the problem is not specific to FS after all, but I'll recount the latest clues in case you hit this again. 1. NVidia version is 1.0-8765. 2. glxgears actually fails in same way as FS programs. Hmmm. 3. Color depth, as reported by GUI tools

Graham, Your 'ldd' output from tkmedit looks identical to what I see locally, so that unfortunately does not give me a hint to the problem. Does the utility 'glxgears' run ok? Also, we run v 1.0-8762 of the NVidia driver (and also some v1.0-8178). Version info is found in /proc/driver/nvidia/ver

Nick: Still having the same trouble as reported last week. Several more tests to report: 1. I installed 3.0.4 -- same result. 2. In addition to several other GUI apps, I ran xclock as you suggested, looks fine. 3. I ldd'ed tkmedit. To get a realistic output I first did: source tkmedit .

Nick: Thanks for the quick reply. Relating to the info you added, here's what I see: 1. DISPLAY is set to just ":0" (ie: without the quotes, and no ".0"). Changing it to ":0.0" -- the failures occur as before. 2. The logfiles you mention show the following: ===

Graham, I haven't encountered this particular error. However, tkmedit and tksurfer produce logs called .xdebug_tkmedit and .xdebug_tksurfer which have some startup and debug info. Is the environment variable 'DISPLAY' set to anything unusual? It should be something like ':0.0' Nick On Fri, 200
