Problem starting mol: after Mol window appears

I am running LinuxPPC 2000 on a grape iMac with MacOS 8.6. When I
startmol as root from a terminal window, the rom gets found, the patches
get applied, a bunch of stuff scrolls by really fast, a new window (black
background) with a title that contains "(slow video)" appears, and then
nothing. When I look at the terminal window I see mol is stuck in a loop
and
**** of_call_method: cmd 'read' ih: FF9D2640 (4/2) Args: 00000004 00417E68

is scrolling across the terminal (endlessly). I then control C twice to
stop. I have fiddled with the molrc file a bit, but I am pretty clueless
what most of it means.

By the way I rpm -e(ed) the version of mol and started with
mol-0.9.47-1.ppc.rpm using the stripped rom from the CD.

Thanks for the help,
