Just as a thought, you might try the 1.1.6 versions; I'm using v1 and it
seems fine, might try v2 soon - this is on a _bo_ system. glibc version
works great on hamm if you install the slink glibc version (as of a
clean hamm install about 2 weeks ago; debian stuff changes fast
though...).
But that's not your problem; the 1.1.5v7 works fine.

You shouldn't need to do that. $DISPLAY is normally set for you by X
whenever you're running in an xsession. Try taking that export out of
your .bash_profile, restarting your x session, popping up an xterm and
typing `echo $DISPLAY` and see
what it says.
Setting it won't mess it up, it's just not necessary. However, you do
need correct format:
productionone$ echo $DISPLAY
:0.0
So a better line would be 'export DISPLAY=:0.0' if you needed it, which
you shouldn't.
Good luck-
