The footprint database is not in gschem, it's in PCB (gschem supports
more layout packages than just PCB, so it can't know which library to
look at).  In PCB, use the Window->Library menu to preview the
library.  See also my PCB tutorials at
http://www.delorie.com/pcb/docs/gs/ for an intro to PCB layout.
