This sounds bad. What version of koules are you running? What state is your
system (Debian 1.3, 2.0 or what). What Xserver do you use?
dpkg -s xkoules
will tell you the version of xkoules.

It did run fine on my system, where I think I build the last version
(a non-maintainer release).

I'll test it, too, but first I end all my open editor sessions :)
