Mac OSX 10.8 Xquartz Crashes
-
So I fixed the issue with NFS (for now) but now when launching the only program this system is supposed to run (Caldera) Xquartz crashes. This is only happening with one user, when opening Caldera with another user everything opens correctly, so it seems to be a corruption of the configuration files or something.
Does anyone know where I can find these config files to either replace them or fix them? I've looked online but the documentation for this program, Xquartz, is less then helpful. Or have any other ideas as to why this is happening?
-
Are you using the Built in XQuartz or the external one? (http://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing/)

I think the external one. I have XQuartz vs 2.7.7
-
Uninstall & Re-install it? I had to do this a few times on 10.6, and an older version, but that usually fixed the problem for me.

Alright, I will try that. I just downloaded the fresh copy from the link and am installing it now. We shall see what happens.
-
Is it a crash / restart loop? or just crash?

Crash / Restart loop. I have to "ignore" and "Don't ReOpen" it to get it out of the loop. Or force quit it.

Nope, as soon as I start it up after the uninstall/reinstall it crashes.

Have you re-installed Xquartz?

I just did.
-
Create a new user account and try launching XQuartz.app as that user.

It works fine as a different user. Which tells me something is wrong with the account I am using.

if you open
/Users/username/Library/Logs/X11/what is there?

There is a xquartz.log file. Looks like the following:

Looks like it has an error loading a keymap file. Then it loads the default one...

Error loading keymap
Found this thread which seemingly shows that you should convert your keymap to XML

Same error shows up on the other users log file. So it doesn't seem to effect the operation. I will see about changing that though.
-
Ok... oddly it looks like it is working from the local console of the machine and not the VNC connection that was setup. That is new.
-
Alright this is solved. It is working after the local console logged in then out and then in again. (Even after I rebooted the machine). Macs are weird.
