Here is my error for XFCE4 Terminal
(terminal:9163): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file: 
assertion `filename != NULL' failed

(terminal:9163): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion 
`G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
Segmentation fault


Another interesting one is from pidgin (ne. gaim)
***MEMORY-WARNING***: gconftool-2[9234]: GSlice: g_thread_init() must be 
called before all other GLib functions; memory corruption due to late 
invocation of g_thread_init() has been detected; this program is likely 
to crash, leak or unexpectedly abort soon...

I have something seriously wrong with some core libs.... sigh....
