Re: GTK+ crashing on application startup - WinXP

[Martin Štefan <ufan@xxxxxxxxx>]

I wish it could be that easy, but it's not. I have uninstalled all three 
(gimp, inkscape and pidgin), cleared all folders/reg. keys, and then 
re-installed only pidgin, no gimp and inkscape, so there should be no 
collision between gtk+ versions. It's giving me still the same message, 
though. Anyway, thanks for advice around different gtk+ versions, I will 
keep that in mind.

Thanks,
Martin
