Hi,

I've fixed that problem myself. I didn't have the LC_* locale
variables set. usermode applications don't start without LC_CTYPE.
After typing export LC_CTYPE=de_DE I could start rpmdrake, mcc, ...

This was caused by a lang=de_DE entry in ~/.gnome2/gdm. Removing it
solved my problems. The LC_* vars came back and now I can even
poweroff my system from the panel menu. So if setting the language
with gdm is supposed to work, the lang script must set all the LC_*
vars to the value submitted from gdm.
