"And you do introduce another iceberg: Tk and X-server."

I'm not sure what you mean. A daunting heap of problems in front of you; and an even greater mass, hidden from sight, waiting to sink your ship? :-)

I write a lot of Tk programs: many posted here; many more for personal use. I don't have any problems with the setup I described above.

I do have this file, in my home directory, which might help with some of your problems.

# .bash_vars

# To be sourced by .bash_profile.

# Use for potentially volatile environment variables.
# Saves having to make repeated edits to .bash_profile.
# Also, can be sourced independently.

set -a

# For X11
DISPLAY=:0
LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1

# ... irrelevant personal variables ...

# For Tk
XFT=1

# For Git
SSH_ASKPASS=

set +a

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


There's more than one way to do things
