Hmm, I'm using the latest glibc from redhat (2.2.4). 

Alas, note htat "failed to share colors" is not my real problem (or so I 
think) - it's the first message that lyx outputs. My real problem is that the 
main window appears, parts of it paint (like menus), but workspace painting 
fails:

$ lyx -dbg `expr 1 + 2 + 8 + 16384 + 65536 + 262144`
Failed to share colors. Using private colormap

a lot of messages from various things...

Initializing form_character::combox...

Workarea event: DRAW

lyx: SIGSEGV signal caught




How to get the coredump?
