Hi All. I am running the latest release of COOT on my Mac running 10.6.4 from X11 quartz installed using Bill Scott's fink instructions. It runs fine. I have just begun using scripts generated by Molprobity or just looking through my models to make corrections based upon the drawing of probe dots. That all works fine as well. However, I have found that COOT and X11 freezes after several corrections of sites (on average I would say about 10-15 corrections). Everything freezes - screen and X11. I have to then force quite X11 to regain control of things and start fresh. I began by just using the COOT backups or saving a new set of corrected coordinates after each fix but obviously this will take quite some time to thoroughly improve a large model. I am including the recommended .coot file I found on the Molprobity site. If anyone has any suggestions on how to eliminate these freezes I would be eternally grateful!
