Celestia not loading properly

OS: Fedora Core 5 Linux
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 6150 (integrated)
Celestia Version: 1.4.1-7

When I start up Celestia, it shows the splash screen for a while, then brings up another box which immediately closes. Running from the command line outputs this:

$ celestia
render path: 1
The program 'Celestia' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'GLXBadLargeRequest'.
(Details: serial 2674 error_code 162 request_code 144 minor_code 2)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Does anyone have any idea?

Celestia works beautifully for all of us here ;-) . You should update the driver of your card. The actual version for Linux is 1.0-9746.
