G'day

First off, are these errors or warnings ?
Warnings can be ignored, they aren't fatal ... unless you're developing it, don't stress too much about it. Errors are bad though, things are broken, and breaking. (incidentally, gcc seems to have the most warnings of any software I've compiled, somewhat ironically)

Don't assume ... especially not with RedHat. Check it...

($ = as user, # = as root)

Find out which paths ldconfig is indexing for library files.

$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf

(make sure it includes, /lib , /usr/lib , /usr/local/lib , and the path to your X libraries. If not, add them using the format in that file.)

[b]#[/b] /usr/sbin/ldconfig

and wait for it to index your library files.

Try and re-run gedit (with or without the amphersand), it may be worth redirecting output into a file you can peruse later.
eg.

$ gedit &2> /tmp/gedit-debug

If its working, it means that Redhat hadn't got an accurate map of the libraries on your system.
If not, it may mean that not all the GNOME libraries are installed as Asmodai said.

# rpm -qvh gedit

(append the version number on there if required)

# updatedb

and then running (for each dependency RPM identifies)
[code]# locate dependency
if they're not present, install them with RPM.
if they are ... its going to get more complex.

Cheers
