Hi!

This problem is hitting me since 6.1 as far as I remember. It may be
because I decided to stick with non-supported linux distros as
slackware or ubuntu, but, hey, this problem is really a pain.

You have 2 ways to solve this, the hard and the easy way (if anybody
asks, my way is whatever works).

The easy one is as someone already said to run "xinstall.sh -NOGUI".

But once I got a cd that didn't have the no_gui folder (can't remember
if it was a beta) and to get everything up and running I had to unpack
all the packages by hand using "tar xzf" for each required .tz package
in the install dir. To "install" IDL in a linux distro one have to
unpack at least base1.tz, base2.tz, linux_x.tz (or the 64bit version
linx_x64.tz), and xi_lin86.tz. Be sure to "cd" to /usr/local/rsi or
whatever path you want to install idl to before unpacking, or use the
tar option "-C /usr/local/rsi".

Regards,
Tiago
