Cannot initialize zlib, because: Unknown error
Which seemed an curious thing. I remember Will saying that some things were uncompressed and cached, and maybe the cache was having access issues. Well, in a way the cache was the problem: components that needed to be uncompressed before getting put in the cache could not even be made. It seems that an experimental libz (based on code from intel's excellent Performance Primitives library) has crept in to our distribution. We only enable our software for non-root users who opt for it. So, root never saw the library, which explains why the desktop looked fine for root. It is in some private folder in /opt. But, our users do see this library. When I removed the library from view, the desktop looked as expected.
Wow! Perhaps you could adjust paths so that /opt is searched/linked last.

Did this help? It led me to the solution!!!! Thanks more than I can say!
