I am not sure it's this simple. I tried following the suggestion to downgrade to intrepids blt. This downgrading fixes the dialog activate bug - I tried it, but does not fix the BLT bugs. A simpler test case that segfaults is import Pmw a=Pmw.Blt.Vector(1) I think there is more going on here.

jetdo, thank you for your suggestions. However, my experience with the fglrx has been awful. Yes I could suspend with 3d enabled, but... only a couple times. The time of resume after every suspend grew exponentially. The other day I waited for the system to wake up for more than 18 minutes!
