Cannot run gaim and multiple other programs


Hi there,
when I try to run gaim I get this feedback..
078625d@dyna180-62:~> gaim
gaim: symbol lookup error: /opt/gnome/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: gdk_screen_set_resolution_libgtk_only

also for firefox i get this

078625d@dyna180-62:~> firefox
/usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin: symbol lookup error: /opt/gnome/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: gdk_screen_set_resolution_libgtk_only

can anyone tell me what is going on here? It was working just fine until now, and I don't remember making any specific changes.

any ideas?
