[Qgis-user] qgis on xubuntu 9.10 - won't start

[Nik Go]

For the QGIS package:  the QGIS PPA @
http://ppa.launchpad.net/qgis/unstable/ubuntu

For the QGIS plugins: the QGIS contributed repository @
http://pyqgis.org/repo/contributed

My earlier statement about the problem being possibly connected to
"xubuntu-desktop" may be inaccurate. I recall having been able to run QGIS
while using the Gnome desktop, and I may have tried to re-install the
plugins and haven't remembered to run QGIS afterwards, hence not detecting
the problem then.
