<p>Endalk,</p>
<p>the problem is still there. It is present in all versions using
new graphics, but Jennifer doesn't think that this is a GRADS
problem. As an alternative, we stick with 2.0.2, which works on
our system.</p>

Did you manage to resolve this problem? I am having similar

I always use SSH from my laptop to connect to
Redhat linux systems … I am not sure I can even
duplicate this method of running GrADS. I know
that unix systems have a GUI interface for
logging in directly that looks a bit like a
windows desktop, but I have never used it. What
happens when you use batch mode and gxprint — do
you get a proper graphic that way? </div>

The difference between the two cases is in

library. <br>

X11 has client/server sides, and I often get
them confused. I think it is the X11 server that
is on the laptop side, and the client on the
redhat linux side. So if you are using the unix
GUI, maybe that is employing the older version
of the X11 server that has the faulty
rendering? </div>

This is probably a symptom

(1) we are using pre-compiled

What is the non-windows
system you are using to
login to the linux system
that fails to render the

a mac, what does it say
about versions in the ‘About

It is probably going to
