Subj : Startup Issue

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to using GoldEd+ on Linux. Everything seems to work perfectly, except, I get a blank screen on startup. In diving into the source, it appears that the blank screen is supposed to be the logo/splash screen - but it seems to fail to put anything on the terminal.
I've tried both on the local console, or my prefered method of ssh from my Mac (macOS 11.6 terminal & ssh).
Below is entire golded.conf as I start Golded by running the cmd:
"/home/fido/bin/gedlnx -C/home/fido/etc/golded.conf"
Linux Distro : Gentoo amd64 (up-to-date as of this writing)
