OK, then start from the basics:

$ ldd $(which inkscape)

Look at the output.  Is any dll shown as missing?

In the answer is no, then next check your anti-virus.  Is it blocking 
the program? Is it injecting a dll?

Another set of tests would be, is the program installed correctly? i.e. 
is it executable? Is not corrupt? A bit more difficult: is it loading 
libraries into valid space (non colliding, in available memory).
