McStas installation and questions

[Emmanuel Farhi (71 83)]

Hello Kristian,

At last, I could compile McStas on mica (SGI machine). parsing instrument (mcstas) and compiling is ok. running simulations by hand seems ok (instrument asks for config parameters).

Then I now try to run reference simulations, as listed in Web Pages TAS1 lineup.
The first line in log file is 

# mica~farhi 104% perl gscan.pl 21 ./linup-1 sim/linup_1_50.sim -39,-35 -73 0 1e5
Invalid parameter specification '-39,-35' at gscan.pl line 35.

Then I try something else :

# gscan 1 21 ./linup-1 sim/linup_1_50.sim -39,-35 -73 0 1e5
Warning: translation table syntax error: Unknown keysym name: ClearLine
Warning: ... found while parsing '<Key>ClearLine:      delete-to-end-of-line()'
Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-screen-medium-r-normal--15-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1" to type FontStruct
dgl error (protocol): remote machine not DGL capable - macfarhi.ill.fr:0.0
dgl error (default init): default dglopen(macfarhi.ill.fr:0.0,4) returned -13

The main question is then : what is DGL ? And does gscan require graphic display ? Is this error message realy generated by gscan ?

I suspect that solution is quite simple (as usual), and I look forward to compare computation results with yours !

Cheers. E.
