Same thing here (FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT, i386, gnome2-2.6.0). When I run
gnome-background-properties (and *some* other Gnome applications), no
text is shown. This behaviour seems to be related to Pango. These
messages appear in the console:

---
Error reading modules file
** (gnome-background-properties:1054): WARNING **: No builtin or
dynamically loaded modules
were found. Pango will not work correctly. This probably means
there was an error in the creation of:
  '/usr/X11R6/etc/pango/pango.modules'
You may be able to recreate this file by running pango-querymodules.

I ran pango-querymodules as root... to no avail. Permissions for
pango.modules are:

f# ls -l pango.modules
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  2078 Apr  5 10:46 pango.modules

and it contains

I'm still looking for a solution to this problem.

Any ideas?
