Hi, can you please make a fresh install: 1) Remove old scid config files: sudo rm -r ~/.scid
2) Remove old scid installed files: sudo make uninstall 3) Clean the scid build directory: sudo make clean 4) Build scid and log the build process: make > uffa.txt 5) Install scid and log the install process: sudo make install >> uffa.txt (all the command typed inside the Scid directory) And if still do not works send me the uffa.txt file?
