Dear all, 

I am trying to install the latest version of Coot on OS X.  I have tried 
downloading the installer from CCP4, using Bill Scott's Fink pre-compiled 
binaries, and also using Fink to compile from source.  Unfortunately every time 
I try to run Coot I get the same error...

Wed Dec  1 10:37:24  coot-real[17558] <Error>: unknown error code: invalid 
pixel format
Wed Dec  1 10:37:24  coot-real[17558] <Error>: kCGErrorFailure: Set a 
breakpoint @ CGErrorBreakpoint() to catch errors as they are logged.
The program 'coot-real' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'GLXBadContext'.
  (Details: serial 288 error_code 147 request_code 0 minor_code 3)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Presumably there is a problem somewhere with one of the graphic library 
dependancies?
Any help would be appreciated.

Tony.

=> fink package is 0.6.2-pre-1-250 in the unstable tree of fink.
=> running OS X version 10.6.5
