We had the same problem as well, on a PPro 200 running Redhat
4.0. Previous installation from the same IDL CD on a P120 worked just
fine. The problem is currently "solved" by using the IDL 5.0
pre-release, which works just fine. My best guess was a conflict with
the Moo-tif we installed earlier, but perhaps not.
