<p dir="ltr">Hi Tubois</p>
<p dir="ltr">I had a similar problem when installing on an Ubuntu 12.04 machine (I am not sure which OS you are using) The problem was solved by installing the following packages:</p>
<p dir="ltr">mesa-utils<br>
libx11-* <br>
libxt-dev <br>
xfonts-100dpi <br>
xfonts-100dpi-transcoded <br>
xfonts-75dpi <br>
xfonts-75dpi-transcoded</p>
<p dir="ltr">Perhaps this will help you determine what packages need to be installed on your system.</p>

Sorry to bother people in the list for this kind of naive question.<br>
<br>
I tried postx on two computers, one my laptop, one cluster in my<br>
laboratory.<br>
<br>
I got the same screen. It seems to be some graphics issue with the system.<br>
<br>
You can find the screenshot attached here.<br>
<br>
So what should I do? Thank you very much!<br>
<br>
