Jeremy,
There is an option in the program to render the graphics using TK or
Open GL. Here is a blurb about the choice on the program website.

Does this help. Unfortunately, I am a novice at the inner workings
of X11. However, these freezing problems came with the upgrade from
the standard Leopard X11 to the version 2.1.1 and 2.1.0.

What exactly do you mean by "TK Graphics"? AFAIK, TK isn't a
graphics library. It is mainly a widget/windowing library. In
fact, there many TK apps use OpenGL for 3D rendering... so I'm not
really sure where to go with this without more information. Can
you please clarify?

Hi all.
I have also been experiencing a bit of X11 freezing (and resulting
in a indefinitely spinning beach ball) while using a piece of
software (CCPNMR analysis). This program uses graphics that can
be rendered by Open GL or TK graphics. When using TK graphics, I
don't ever experience the freezing problem. However, if I render
the graphics using Open GL, Xquartz will freeze up at some point
that is never the same. This makes it hard to diagnose the problem.
I have mentioned this before, but I just stumbled upon the TK/
OpenGL difference and I thought that it might be useful for these
other problems.
