Hi all, Just got up. Went through a complete uninstall of XQuartz, restarted the machine, tested everything to make sure it wasn't there. Nothing in top, nothing in the launcher, xclock gone, and $DISPLAY shows a blank line
I then went through a reinstall using the 2.7.7. dmg package. No problem. Restarted the machine as per installation instructions. $Display -->/private/tmp/com.apple.launchd.9puGcCVaM8/org.macosforge.xquartz:0 in top: 61859 Xquartz 0.0 00:00.00 2 0 23 808K 0B 0B 61859 61854 Visible in the Launchpad as X11 (but it does not when I click on it) However, when I type xclock in the command line I see its process: 61828 xclock 0.0 00:00.00 1 0 9 588K 0B 0B 61828 61749 But I do not see a xclock GUI (as I have seen on websites). Surely before even trying to communicate with remote applications I need to ensure XQuartz is configured correctly on myside.
