Comment 11 for bug 398186

 O.k. you hit on something. Normally, I always start X11 with my startup
preferences after a reboot. So, it is usually up and running before I try
to invoke Inkscape. This time I quit X11 and then started Inkscape by
itself. It finally came up (the pre1-1 version). I would be happy to test
the pre1-2 version if you think it is necessary. Just let me know.
