Re: [Visualpython-users] VPython 5.13 not working on OS X 10.6

Hi there,

vpython is still not working on my machine, neither with the suggested
python 2.6.2 nor with the macports-provided 2.6.4 (I made it import
correctly visual by recompiling the boost libraries with a patch from svn).
It simply starts the python launcher, but a right-click reveals that it is
"not responding", and in fact no graphics/extra window is created. I am
pretty sure there's something wrong in my 10.6 install, but it'd be nice to
know what without having to wipe out everything and reinstall the OS from
scratch. Using the trace module to get an insight, the problem is triggered
after the execution of line 69 in primitives.py,
self.__display.add_renderable(self)

could that be an openGL problem? I have a macbook pro with the latest
updates from apple installed

thanks for your attention

Mirko
