Hi Luca, I think this is an issue of how you start your ssh session to the remote host. Try using ssh -y (or -Y, I can't remember at the minute) instead of ssh -x and see what happens. I had this problem from a Mac OS-X machine to Linux before. Cheers, Paul Luca Jovine wrote:
Dear all,
While waiting for a Mac OS X version of PHENIX, I have installed it on a Linux server, with the idea of remotely display the GUI on our OS X machines. However, when I try to do so, the GUI briefly opens and then bombs out with the following message:
LINUX> phenix
Running the PHENIX GUI with /home/xray/luca/bin/phenix/phenix-1.1a/phenix-1.1a/ build/intel-linux/python/bin/python
PHENIX distribution located in /home/xray/luca/bin/phenix/ phenix-1.1a/phenix-1.1a/phenix

Creating new Data Storage /home/xray/luca/strategies The program 'wxPhenix.py' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 6349 error_code 3 request_code 38 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
...has anyone else encountered the same issue, and, if so, managed to solve it?
Thanks in advance and best regards,
Luca
