Hi all-

Our group is getting the following error message shortly after starting AFNI on one of our iMacs; specifically after opening a few datasets and working for 1-2 minutes. Seems to be isolated to one iMac. We've re-downloaded AFNI binaries but the message persists. I'm thinking there's a conflict with the OS or X11, but would like to have some expert input before I start reinstalling things.

I couldn't find much in the Message Board - did try AFNI_FLOATSCAN = YES to no avail, per this not quite related thread: [afni.nimh.nih.gov]

As you can see, we haven't installed the packages for image save, but this neglect has not caused problems in the past (other similar machines.) I am wondering about "Illegal driver custom duplication '3DSVM'"

Thanks!
Josh
