Hi Alden, |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
I've seen this happen in the past with the nvidia drivers and |
| 22 |
it was often due to permission problems. |

You could first try running VMD in text mode to make sure |
| 25 |
it works |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
[markus@despina] vmd -dispdev none |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
If this works, strace on the VMD binary should give you a clue |
| 30 |
what might be going wrong, |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
[markus@despina] strace /usr/lib/vmd/vmd_LINUX |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
best, |
| 36 |
Markus |
