When I originally tried to solve my IDL problem, I installed the
following RedHat 6.0 package (following Jeremy Sanders advice on
"compatibility libraries" - something I know very little about):
compat-glibc-5.2-2.0.7.1.i386.rpm
and modified my IDL script. I tried running xpalette within IDL to see
if I could reproduce the X11 error described above, and I did. Then I
found an earlier news thread describing the IDL problem, which led to me
to install these packages as well:
compat-binutils-5.2-2.9.1.0.23.1.i386.rpm
compat-libs-5.2-1.i386.rpm
After installing these, I no longer have the X11 problem, which was a
great relief to me. I hope this solves anyone else's X11 problems too.
Peter.
