When i start gedit here i do it from a xterm by typing
gedit, it then spits all the error messages onto the xterm makes it
easy to debug, i suggest you try that and read all the error lines.
Another thing i have done is checked to see what libs gedit uses,
here is a list, if you dont have the proper libs then it will barf at
you.

Quite possably you are missing a lib and that is causing the problem,
remember when one picks and chooses at install time about what he or
she wants, problems like this will always arise.
RPM should check all dependancies when installing programs.
It could even be that you have all the libs but a directory
containging one or more of them is not defined in
/etc/ld.so.conf.
Hope this helps.
Once more gedit starts for me here and does not seg fault.
