I've had a similar problem. Since I'm not sure if this list accepts attachments, I won't attach an example of the crash log in Library/Logs/CrashReporter. The basic idea seems to be that GIMP cannot find X11: Dyld Error Message: Library not loaded: /usr/X11/lib/libXrender.1.dylib Referenced from: /tmp/skl/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gimp-2.6 Reason: image not found Binary Images: 0x7fff5fc00000 - 0x7fff5fc3bdef dyld 132.1 (???) <B536F2F1-9DF1-3B6C-1C2C-9075EA219A06> /usr/lib/dyld System Profile: Model: MacPro4,1, BootROM MP41.0081.B08, 8 processors, Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 2.26 GHz, 16 GB, SMC 1.39f5 Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 4870, ATI Radeon HD 4870, PCIe, 512 MB On the other hand, I have an imac, also running 10.6.6, which runs GIMP just fine. > > What might I do to successfully open Gimp? > > Kindly, > > Joe Valley > _______________________________________________ > Gimp-user mailing list > Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU > https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user > _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
