Alexander, et al,
Bingo! Installed XQuartz 2.6.3 and both gimp and xsane work great now!
(Note that I had done a clean install of Mac OS X 10.5.8 and Xcode 3.1.3 on
this PPC G5, which installed some "apple version" of X11 that was crashing.)
Should have thought of this myself -- kind of remember this issue of X11
versions vis-a-vis OS X. Guess that's what I get for working with obsolete
systems :-)
Thanks everyone for all the help. I'll report back here with benchmarks
(especially SCSI I/O) once I get things setup with my scanner.
Mike
