    gnome gives me a segmentation fault when I try to start it using
    startx. When i try other windows managers such as fluxbox and
    enlightenment I have no problems starting. When in fluxbox or
    enlightenment, I get a segmentation fault with gtk programs like
    mozilla, firefox and gaim also. I also tried using the gdm and here
    is the error message i get in .xession-errors

    usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/PreSession/Default: Registering your session with
    wtmp and utmp
    /usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/PreSession/Default: running: /usr/X11R6/bin/sessreg
    -a -w /var/log/wtmp -u /var/run/utmp -x
    "/usr/X11R6/share/gnome/gdm/:0.Xservers" -h "" -l ":0" "daddius"
    /usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup...
    /usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/Xsession: Setup done, will execute:
    /usr/bin/ssh-agent -- gnome-session

    The only time gnome and other gtk programs work is when in failsafe.
    Could anyone point me in the right direction as to solving this
    problem?
