Hello,
Looks like that you're trying to use GtkEntry method on GtkTextView 
widget, look at console you may see a couple of warnings. Try this:
gtk_text_buffer_set_text( gtk_text_view_get_buffer(textview1), 
string[0], -1 );

GtkTextView and GtkTextBuffer are complex widgets, you can read about 
them at:
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/gtk/GtkTextView.html
