Hello Sal,

I tried setting my display to :0.0 and was able to get the tkmedit program to open on my Mac Mountain Lion machine so Im not exactly sure why yours is having difficulty. Have you installed XQuartz?

If you already have XQuartz installed I would go ahead and try commenting out the DISPLAY variable setting in the /etc/profile file and reopen a terminal and see if that works.

Hi,

I can run freeview using my current install on Mountain Lion, however when I run tkmedit or tksurfer I get the following error:

GLUT: Fatal Error in tksurfer.bin: could not open display: :0.0

my /etc/profile has the setting export DISPLAY=:0.0 for a different program. Is there settings I should add / change to allow tkmedit or tksurfer to run?

Thanks!
