ok, so this part is normal:
pgAdmin is a GUI and needs a X server. There is no good reason to launch 
it from tty1.

So, you are using a backport which was made for Debian/stable (aka woody).
I'm gonna check it twice but I don't remember that Gnome 2.2 is 
distributed with Woody, to me it's 1.4 and maybe part of Gnome 2.0.

Can you tell us which Debian release you are using and from where your 
Gnome 2.2 comes from?

If you are using woody + backports, a rebuild of the package may help 
(or not). If you are using sarge or unstable, you should definitely 
update your installation (sarge is moving to Gnome 2.8) and change your 
sources.list for pgAdmin III packages.

A backtrace may help too in addition to the strace log you have already 
sent.
$ gdb pgadmin3
at (gdb) prompt, type "run" and whent it crashes type "bt"

Raphaël
