> I also used all upgraded ports. I also just noted that a python launcher
keeps bouncing for a long time and then becomes non-responsive. could it
be some python problem?
Can you try something else the uses pymol2,7 like the relax package? It
shows start up its GUI with 'relax --gui'.
FYI, I found https://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/xquartz-
dev/2010-April/002802.html which implies that this issue with the laggy
top window has come and gone over the various Xquartz releases. I know of
few programs that will stress the GLx support in Xquartz like pymol. One
issue that we have grappled with over the years is that the code can
enable the stereoscopic mode on graphics cards which isn't implemented
across all of them in the Apple video drivers.
Actually you might try invoking pymol with the -M argument. Normally the
issue that solves isn't a startup glitch but display artifacts as it keeps
pymol from detecting and using the stereoscopic support in the video card.
