About a month ago I gave j801 a try. My main machine is my
MacBook Pro OS 10.6.8. I went to a Qt website and loaded a
bunch of stuff into /Library/Frameworks/. But I wasn't able
to get much working, so I dropped j801 for a while.

Today I removed all the old j64-801 directories and reinstalled
everything. Now the jcon801 icon opens a window (before a window
would open and then vanish). jqt801 a nice window and I can load
and run my routines. BUT ... something is missing with regard to
graphics. If a routine calls plot, it stops with

value error: pd_cairo
       fn~arg

If, in launch pad, I try qtdemo, and then select, say, "controls",
all seems to work. But should I choose "plot" I get

   error in: qtdemo_ok_button
             value error: pd_cario
                          fn~arg

Same sort of thing with wddemo. If I try "solitaire" I get
   error in: solitaire_game_paint
             rank error: |
              glcmds__| y[|=.locGL2_jgl2_

and in this case, when I try to clear the error window, a new
one replaces it. The ony way out is with "force quit" on the
j session.

I assume I've either failed to install something or some path
is wrong. Any suggestions?

By the way, I'm running j601 and jgtk701 on this machine with
no problems. I've never done much with jhs, though I have run
it under 701. It would be nice to diagnose my problem with 801,
as the look of it is quite attractive.
