I have installed idl on my mac book and it seems to works nicely, but
when I try to make a plot it returns me the following error

X windows protocol error: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such
operation).


Neverthless, it makes a plot .... but still, why this message and how
to get rid of it ?!? Thanks for suggestions

Notive that I have also installed X1) and added the following commands
in my .bash_profile

# if we're NOT ssh'd in
if [ ! ${SSH_TTY} ]; then
# make sure X is running
if [ "`ps -x | awk '{print $5}' | grep X11`" = "" ]; then
open /Applications/Utilities/X11.app &
# then refocus Terminal.app
osascript -e 'tell application "Terminal" to activate'
fi
# if DISPLAY isn't set
if [ x${DISPLAY} = x ]; then
export DISPLAY=:0
fi
fi

and in my.xinitrc
quartz-wm
