Gerwald, Unfortunately, you are not the first to report trouble on FC6, so this is clearly real problem.
However, with our 64-bit FC6 install, PyMOL works fine -- and others have reported success as well. In other words, there is some problem here other than simply, 64 bit + FC6 + PyMOL, but as of yet, no one has figured out what it is... The freeglut error is a separate cause for concern. That means you do not have compatible vendor-supplied OpenGL drivers installed, and thus, PyMOL will run rather slowly. As for 64-bit, there are no official 64-bit builds yet, but source code can definitely be built in 64-bit mode on Linux.
