I installed Ethereal 0.8.12 RPM binary by Gomez on my redhat 6.2 system, 
but when I load a libpcap capture file the text is unreadable. The menu
text is always fine, but I can't do anything to get the main packet
display window working properly. You can view the problem at:

I downgraded to Ethereal 0.8.11 and it worked fine. I recompiled
the Ethereal 0.8.12 srpm (rpm --rebuild ethereal-0.8.12-1.src.rpm),
but it didn't fix the problem either.

Any suggestions?

Configuration:

Pentium 200mhz mmx with 128 MB of ram
Redhat 6.2 with all updates
Linux 2.2.17 custom kernel
HelixCode Gnome with the latest updates
XFree86 4.0 (from redhat rawhide)

Thanks
