Sounds like a LD_LIBRARY_PATH problem - type "ldd eMusic" and see if it can find 
all the libraries it needs.  It looks like it'll say it can't find 
libstringlist, so you need to find that, and add that directory either to your 
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, or if this is Linux, to /etc/ld.so.conf 
and re-run ldconfig (I think - been a while since I did that).

I imagine the problem is that your shells (and so the gnome launcher) can't find 
that library, but GMC for some reason can.

Hope this helps,
