I run gnome, 11.04, beta2, "Ubuntu Classic", and typing "gitk" from a git repo causes the screen to flash, and then flicker back but messed up, and the system is frozen. I've installed all updates before trying this.

I've noticed that if I manually change Tk/wish to 8.5, running gitk no longer crashes. However, returning it back to the default, and running gitk will cause the crash.
Changing to tk8.5:
sudo apt-get install tk8.5
sudo update-alternatives --config wish
## select /usr/bin/wish8.5 from the list.

So, I'm hoping someone more qualified than me can check on this.
Also, I'm not sure which bug is most relevant to post in, since they are all so similar.
