The error included in the original message seemed to indicate that somethin=
g was
trying to use glXUseXFont from libgtkgl.so.5, but was failing.  (I don't ac=
tually
know if I'm right, I'm just guessing.)  I couldn't figure out where glXUseX=
Font
comes from, but I know I have it, because I can bring up the man page.  :-)

Maybe instead of gtkglarea being the problem, it is a library rpm or dev rp=
m that
needs to be installed.

Just grasping at straws, though...I don't actaully *read* source code.  (ha=
 ha...)
