did you try: which gnome-font-properties (as non-root) to see if you have other binaries somewhere else? did you try: strace gnome-font-properties to see other debugging (juicy) information? did you try: $> ls -l /usr/lib/libmetacity-private.so.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 28 2004-05-16 00:45 /usr/lib/libmetacity-private.so.0 -> libmetacity-private.so.0.0.0 $> ls -l /usr/lib/libmetacity-private.so.0.0.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 149K 2004-05-15 19:22 /usr/lib/libmetacity-private.so.0.0.0 to make sure that those libraries are actually there? did you try: $> ldd /usr/bin/gnome-font-properties | grep metacity libmetacity-private.so.0 => /usr/lib/libmetacity-private.so.0 (0x4002f000) to see if the library is pointing to where it should, and it's found? Last but not least, make sure that you check: $>cat /etc/ld.so.conf /lib /usr/lib /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/i486-linuxlibc1/lib /usr/local/lib I ran out of possible things to try. I hope that helps. ----)(----- Luis M System Administrator/Web Developer LatinoMixed.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] "We think basically you watch television to turn your brain off, and you work on your computer when you want to turn your brain on" -- Steve Jobs in an interview for MacWorld Magazine 2004-Feb http://www.latinomixed.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
