I was way behind on system updates on my laptop running opensuse 10.3. I finally updated them, which was a lot. Sorry to not be specific. Anyway, everything seems to work ok so far except for pidgin. It starts for a few seconds and then segmentation faults. I've tried installing the latest source (2.5.4) and I get the same thing. I've run it in debug and I get the log below.

Any suggestions?

Thanks, James
