This is what it does:

peter at vv:~/3.5.0-gm-2$ ./revolution
Will try and use Shared Memory extensions
XVideo extensions available? : Yes
Will use X-Freetype font rendering
Using Pango complex text layout


then if you do 4.0 from the command line, the size is identical, and you get
this

peter at vv:~/ Studio4.0.0-gm-1$ ./revolution

and it starts up.

Maybe we have to do something with X-Freetype font rendering, however one
might go about that?

Peter
