[ncl-talk] Error: Couldn't find per display information ?

[Rick Brownrigg]

Hi,

You are able to run X11 clients from your user's host on *your* machine,
but does your user have XQuartz installefd on *their* machine? (I'm sorry
-- I'm not near a Mac at the moment to test how it behaves if attempting to
run an X11 client without the server installed(?)).

Maybe that helps?
Rick
