Leopard X11

Greetings,

One of our good customers from the USGS is having an issue with our build of GRASS GIS on Leopard, and I was hoping someone good point me in the right direction.

I have read that there is not a need to set the DISPLAY variable with Leopard, but if its not set, the GRASS GUI will not display. Before Leopard we used 'open-x11' which would return the variable to use for DISPLAY.

The only thing that we have found to work is to manually set DISPLAY to :0 which I admit is a hack. That works for our customer, except he wants to be able to use his cinema display attached to his PowerBook for his main display. When it is set to :0, he can only drag a small section of the GRASS GUI into his secondary display. Setting DISPLAY to :1 displays this error:

	Application initialization failed: couldn't connect to display ":1"
	Error in startup script: couldn't connect to display ":1"

And suggestions, help or pointers are greatly appreciated.


Thanks,
