Try starting from a terminal. That should give you some more fedback on what happens.

This may fix your problem or not. I did a search in the forum and got this from someone's post.

If you have not already done so go to "System" > "Administration" > "Security Level and Firewall". Enter your root password and click "ok". On the "SELinux" tab click on "Modify SELinux Policy", click on "Compatibility" to open it and tick the check box next to "Allow the use of shared libraries with Text Relocation". Click "ok". Reboot your machine to implement the new SELinux policy.

Accually, there is a file that you are missing. I fixed this one myself. i believe the file is called tcl/tk and should have been installed standard in FC5 but wasent for some reason.

Anyway all you have to do is open a terminal and type the code

yum install tcl tk

thats all, fixed. hope i helped
