Be aware that an X-server running on the server may not be enough: in a project I worked on before, we got problems when no-one was logged in directly on the server (no X-session running). That's why we set up Xvfb to run permanently just for this kind of things. >I must do some more testing but I think the current capabilities will be >sufficient to replace rasmol by Jmol for our automatic image generation. >So there is no need to invest too much work into this.

I get the following error message: Can you create a bug report in Sourceforge ? I will try to investigate on this by looking at the source code. I hope that it will be enough because I don't have access to an SGI computer. Nico ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
