Well it was worth a shot. I had suspected the problem was with OpenGL 
which I think is a Fedora Core 5 problem which has been ignored by 
Fedora. You are confirming my suspicion. Here is an output from glxinfo:
_________________________________________________
name of display: :0.0
X Error of failed request:  GLXBadContext
 Major opcode of failed request:  143 (GLX)
 Minor opcode of failed request:  5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent)
 Serial number of failed request:  19
 Current serial number in output stream:  19

The glx RPMS installed on my machine are:

rpm -qa |grep GL
mesa-libGL-6.4.2-6
mesa-libGLU-6.4.2-6
mesa-libGLU-6.4.2-6
mesa-libGL-devel-6.4.2-6
mesa-libGL-6.4.2-6
mesa-libGLU-devel-6.4.2-6

Is there something I can do to alleviate this problem?

Thanks for all your help,
