Torleif,
The new X11 2.1.2 might have fixed the problem...but I agree that it
is all a fault of the X11 program. Hopefully things are fixed. I did
see something posted on the X11 forums that might relate to this
problem. Listed below:
Hi guys
I'm having problems with IDL 7.0 running under the new X11. Things
have improved greatly with the recent upgrades, but X11.app freezes
more or less randomly, as it did in X11 2.1.1. You can trigger this
freeze if you resize a window 10-20 times.
Freeze details are below. (Not sure if this is relevant, but IDL seems
to be Motif based - libXm.3.0.2.dylib). Everything works fine under
the old X11. Any thoughts?
Cheers, Ricardo
I will keep you all updated.
