Hi,

I would like to use GRASS 6.0 on my MacBookPro laptop. I installed Grass6.0 from
the Grass site and installed X11 from the MacOS X installation CD. Problems appear
when I want to start Grass:

- < double click on Grass6.0 icon >
--> start window appears
- < click on the start button >
--> the xterm window appears
--> after a while the following message appears:"X11 got an error: AppleEvent
timed out. (-1712)"

Thank you for your help

Caroline

Can you be a little more specific about how you installed GRASS?  I.e. when you
say you got GRASS from 
the GRASS site, did you take source code and compile, or download the pre-compiled
software?  I'm 
guessing you got pre-compiled (binaries), but then there are at least three different
sources listed at 
http://grass.itc.it/grass60/binary/macosx/ - Lorenzo Moretti's binaries, OpenOSX's,
and fink's.  I'm 
guessing it's one of the first two.

Cheers,
Scott Mitchell

I think it was Lorenzo Moretti's binaries: "GRASS-OSX-6.0.0-1.dmg".
Cheers,

Caroline,

Your problem is propably not a bug in Grass but related to this particular
platform/package.

I'm not a Mac user so I can't help you much.

I recommend contacting the packager (who is Lorenzo Moretti in this case) and
if that doesn't help, asking on the Grass user's list
http://grass.itc.it/mailman/listinfo/grassuser where you can find many
helpfull folks.

I'll close this ticket then. If you find out though that this IS a bug in
Grass anyway, please re-open this report by simply replying to this message
with further details.

Good luck,
Maciek

Maciek,
The problem is solved now thanks to Apple: when starting the X11.app =20
the full screen option must be enabled in the preferences. Now Grass =20
starts without problems.
Cheers,

Caroline
