Hi,
I just installed 2.3.2_beta3 on my Leopard 10.5.5 MacBook and am having several problems with our X11 based application now.
First, I tried to install X11-2.3.1.pkg after trying 2.3.2-beta3 but it crashes every time I try to start the X11 server. I've rebooted, reinstall a couple of times but no luck. X11 now just crashes immediately. How does one downgrade X11?
You should be able to just install the 2.3.1 package. What's the crash log say?
Second, at least with 2.3.2_beta3 our application's dialogs now frequently, but not always, pop to the upper left corner of the desktop (dual monitors) after twiddling some of the dialog's widgets.
Are you using gravity on these windows?
Third, the application opens multiple connections to the X server since it uses both Motif and QT4. With 2.3.2_beta3, some dialogs created via PyQT are now causing the X11 server to crash; the main app is Motif based.
A stack trace of the crash would be helpful.
Unfortunately, I have not been keeping up with all the 2.3.x updates so I don't know how far back this problem goes. Prior to this I was running 2.2.2 without these problems. I'll be happy to try the various 2.2.x and 2.3.x release to see when the problem was introduced if someone can tell me how to properly downgrade.
Just install the package, you should be able to downgrade without issue...
