New problem:

Got XFree86-devel, did install with --force (system said I didn't have
Glibc-2.1, even though I do), then configure and make of GTK+ went fine.
But, after restarting X, I can no longer even run Gnome, I simply get
booted back to the login screen. I can however get into KDE. Any
sugestions?
