Which developer tools? I have Xcode 3.0 installed.

I was able to compile iv and neuron successfully with the --with-x option specified. As with older versions of neuron, the GUI would not display with X11; I'm going to try to recompile against carbon.

Thanks; much appreciated.

While trying to compile the version of InterViews that accompanies neuron 6.1 on MacOSX 10.5.1 (Intel) with gcc 4.0.2, I observed the following errors after running configure with the --with-x option specified: Making all in src Making all in lib g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../include -I/usr/X11/i...

Compiling the latest alpha release of NEURON against Carbon seems to work fine.

I tried building NEURON against X11 on another Intel Mac running MacOSX 10.4.10 and Apple's X11 server with the same results I obtained on my iMac.

I'll see if I can discover anything with your debugging advice.

Now iv's config.guess returns i386-apple-darwin8.10.1 while the config.guess in NEURON 6.1.933 returns i686-apple-darwin8.10.1 (I erased and downloaded both tarballs).

The iv config.guess script still reports my system as being i686-apple-darwin8.10.1. I tried rebuilding it along with NEURON 6.1.933; the same results as previously noted were observed.

My machine is has a 2.16 GHz Core 2 Duo and is running 10.4.10; iv's configure identifies the system type as i686-apple-darwin8.10.1.

Same results with 6.1.931; nrngui displays a menu over ssh on my Linux machine but not on the Mac machine itself. idemo does work on the Mac machine, however.

Although I configured, built, and installed iv as you previously described, I can't run idemo because its linking assumes that libUnidrawhines.3.dylib and libIVhines.3.dylib are located in /usr/lib. nrniv, however, correctly assumes that said libraries are where I installed them (i.e., in /tmp/neuro...

Yes.

The DISPLAY variable is set to :0.0

I used the same configure options as you did with a prefix of /tmp/neuron

Thanks for looking into this. When I built and installed iv/neuron in the manner you described, neither nrngui nor neurondemo displayed the menu interfaces after I started X11. This behavior was consistent regardless of whether I started X11 by clicking on X11.app in the Finder or started it with /u...

Were you able to get it to work with x11?

I used the X11 development files and display server provided by Apple. The former are included with Xcode and the latter is available on the MacOSX 10.4 installation DVD and/or online (I am using version 1.1.3 of the latter; there may be more than one version available online). I tried launching nrn...
