Look in /etc/hosts, make sure the line:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
exists. Otherwise, that's a cryptic error message and will be hard to
track down.
Application initialization failed: this isn't a Tk applicationcouldn't
connect to display "localhost:10.0"
% [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# echo $DISPLAY
localhost:10.0
That would be correct for tunneled X11 over SSH.

Ooops, look out! We're not in Kansas anymore! (Sorry, I tried to resist
as long as I could).

Are you on any sort of IM program or in the IRC channel at all? Well, I
can't IRC from here at work at the moment, but I can do a couple
flavours of IM...Let me know and I'll see what I can do about helping
you. A good shot would be to look at /etc/hosts though, 'cause if that
localhost line is missing it could cause all sorts of grief.
Cheers,
