I'm running gnome.  From a xterminal, I try to start rxvt, and get

Has anyone seen this problem, and can you tell me what I should check?

You may have managed to hit http://bugs.debian.org/343389 .  Try
reinstalling the x11-common package with dpkg --force-confmiss:

dpkg -i --force-confmiss /var/cache/apt/archives/x11-common_*.deb

Aaron,
Thank you for the reply. I did as you suggested, but the error remains the same.
Thanks though!
