On Leopard and later you never want to set DISPLAY yourself.
pgplot has no user executables, so that's consistent. I just installed pgplot and verified that it does _nothing_ to disrupt my own X11 setup. You may have a stuck X11 process or something like that. Try using the Console application from /Applications/Utilities, try to start X11 again, and see if anything is being reported. > > On 31 Oct 2009, at 12:53, Alexander Hansen wrote: > >> Bfrick wrote: >>> Hi, >>> >>> I just have installed pgplot using 'fink install' . >>> the installations seemed to work fine but I can't open >>> anymore the Apple installed X11 (MacBook Pro, Snow Leopard). >>> In fact, as I can see in the Dock, X11 tries >>> to open periodocally without success. >>> >>> Is there any advice on that? >>> >>> Thanks >>> Bernhard >>> >>> >> I'd be very surprised if _just_ installing pgplot is the root of your >> problem.
