gtk-1.2 Firefox 2 (from DSL linux), Seamonkey 1.1.17, Dillo all work with 
Xfbdev.

Abiword is screwy.   I think it is the only program that broke with the 
glibc update, and the only one that gives a gtk error with Xfbdev.

Puppy linux works with Xorg but uses a later glibc than 2.3.6.
Are there other small linuxes with a not-so-recent glibc and Xorg?
(DSL uses Xvesa or Xfbdev only).

I may try other small wordprocessors on here.
