After wrestling with the nvidia driver (see the thread entitled
"Nvidia MX 4000 card locking up on FC5 as updated"), I now find I
can't launch some programs. I get error messages like so:

I can launch the same apps sucessfully over an SSH login.

I do not see anything that jumps out at me in the logs or config file.

I don't think I've tried to launch a program in X on that machine
since that thread, so this may be a continuation. Sigh.
