The latest version of GNUbg that runs on OS/X Mavericks (10.9) is v1.03.000 . Not sure which version you got but to make sure you'll need to ensure you get this one: http://gnubg.org/media/macos/gnubg-1_03_000-mac-x86_64.dmg Assuming you have XQuartz installed(which you say you do) you need to open the DMG file above. You MUST drag the GNUbg Application inside the DMG to the /Applications folder. It will not run from any other location. Once you have it installed into the /Applications folder then you can launch it. The first time you run it wait 3-4 minutes and it should launch. The long delay should only occur the first time you run it after installation. Let me know how you make out. -- Michael Petch GNU Backgammon Maintainer / Developer OpenPGP FingerPrint=D81C 6A0D 987E 7DA5 3219 6715 466A 2ACE 5CAE 3304 _______________________________________________ Bug-gnubg mailing list Bug-gnubg@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnubg
