Unable to open files

[LFB]

Hi there, neither with the recommended version nor with the actual version of 0.5 am I able to open any of the xar-files in the "Template" and "Examples" directories. A message pops up: "An error occured (file does not exist) when opening the file: Tex" when I want to open the file "Examples/TextCurve.xar" for instance. And in the command line from where I started XaraLX there's the message

(xaralx:30460): Pango-WARNING **: Invalid UTF-8 string passed to pango_layout_set_text()

flashing by while the pop-up is open. In order to avoid permission problems I set the complete xaralx directory to 777. I have tested the packages "RecomXaraLX0.5_rev1175.tar.bz2" and "xaralx0.5_rev1370.tar.bz2" on Slackware 10.2. Any ideas for me?

Edit: Meanwhile I've tried the autopackage version and even have build XaraLX from source, it's always the same: Can't open files :-(
