Ouch... tho honestly... since we found it was with GNOME only, it could be on other distributions, possibly including the Gentoo I'm using, since I don't do GNOME, only KDE. Any chance you could do an ldd pan > pan.ldd.xfce.lst, then start GNOME long enough to do an ldd pan > pan.ldd.gnome.lst from it? Then post the two files, or at least a diff between them? I'd /love/ to nail this one to a particular library, or at least know that such a simple procedure wasn't going to get us the necessary data if there's noting significant in the diff. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
