Hi everybody,

I just installed vlc from freshrpms via "yum install videolan-client" 
with all its dependancies. It started once after it was installed, but 
somehow I screwed something up. I accidently switched the menue window 
off so that only the video should be seen, but there was no video 
opened :( - so the only way to stop the application was to send a kill 
signal to the main application vlc. Since then, it doesn't start any 
more but gives me the following errors:

[user@host user]$ gnome-vlc
VideoLAN Client 0.5.2 Natalya

Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C

Is there any config file, that I have to delete or any other thing to 
do to get it launching again? I allready deinstalled vlc with all its 
dependancies and reinstalled it again, but to no success.

Any help appreciated,
Alex
