Looks like the problem might have to do with the new version of Image
Magick. I tried them on 2 machines - the one I built DX on and one I
installed the DX4.1 binaries on. I get different errors on both machines,
but one has a CVS updated version. I guess what is important is the
machine with the DX4.1 binaries that I distributed to opendx.org fails
with ImageMagick 5.2. Disconnects for jpg and gif, works okay for miff.
I will look into further today.
Chris, do you have ImageMagick 5.1.1 installed? Can you save gif there?
