Hi Venkat, I've now tried many different operating systems locally, remotely (ssh, VPN and VNC), and in virtual machines, but on all different Linux, Windows, and Mac systems the GUI always works. I cannot for the life of me reproduce the problem you see. Can you run the relax test suite from the command prompt with:
$ relax --test-suite It will be interesting to see if you see a segfault after the system and unit tests, just when the GUI tests start. Could you also run the individual test categories with: $ relax --system-tests $ relax --unit-tests $ relax --gui-tests The first two should run fine and you should see a print out of the tests passing. The only thing I can think of which would be the cause of this problem is a broken wxPython installation. What operating system distribution are you using? How is Python and wxPython installed on this system (via the package management, compiled sources downloaded of the internet, or self-compiled)? Do you have physical access to the Linux machine? Can you or your sys admin sit on that machine and try to see if the GUI launches on that machine's monitor?
