The file manager one.  I'm at work now, but should be home about 1 a.m.
EST and can run it from an xterm and see if that gives any clues.  

I perhaps should try wiping everything out in the /usr/local
directories, but have spent a lot of time with this as it is.  The
tarballs are in a tarball of my /home/rebecca/ directory on a zip disk.

I don't have a list of what I upgraded accessible from here, but I did
make notes of what I changed.  Some things seem quite stable (love
gnorpm), others are very touchy (modem lights, mini-commander, disk
mount), while others are totally problematic like aisleriot.

I do have the stable gtk for the stable version of gnome, but I removed
the developement packages for both and for imlib (that, I'm pretty sure,
was removed completely as the only thing dependent on it was Eterm,
which I compiled from soure after working on Gnome.
