Hi,

I'm trying to start ccp4i over an X11 tunneled ssh session (ssh -X). 
This works for many applications but not for ccp4i. I get the following 
error:

X Error of failed request:  BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request:  18 (X_ChangeProperty)
  Atom id in failed request:  0x19a
  Serial number of failed request:  12
  Current serial number in output stream:  15

Anyone know how to get this to work or why this error is occurring? It 
works if I just setenv DISPLAY ..., but it's annoying to have to do that 
esp if you are behind a NAT with other users. Would it help if I 
compiled the ccp4i against the system libraries rather than use the 
binary distribution?

Thanks,
