<original message> Dear Fink developers, I had xmgrace working on my macbook pro for two years. I recently did some upgrades of both Fink and Mac OS X. I had installed xmgrace from the grace%%%.tar.gz from the Weizman Institute page, not from Fink. When I run xmgrace from an x term my X11 crashes and I get the message "The application X11 quit unexpectedly Mac OS X and other applications are not affected" Then I decided to uninstall xmgrace and use the distribution from Fink site. I installed, rebuilt and did all of the standard stuff. Again, "The application X11 quit unexpectedly Mac OS X and other applications are not affected" HELP I rely on this program for my research. Do you have any suggestion about what about what to do? Do I need to reinstall X11 ????

We've had reports of similar crashiness from another application (xemacs) after the latest 10.4 security update: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.general/28191/match=xemacs so it might be worth trying the same fix, depending on what your console output shows. -- Alexander Hansen Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel
