Description:
if i start gvim via a launcher, it just hangs with a blank unresponsive window. starting it via cli won't even get me that far. vim works fine.
sudo gvim, or start gvim as root also works

groups for non-root user : wheel log locate avahi network video audio optical storage

Additional info:
* package version(s) : 7.2.1

Steps to reproduce:
Install gvim and try to start it as a normal user
