Hi Friedrich, thanks a lot. I thought it was the bug but then I realised it was a problem of the X11. I don’t specifically want to run the program one way or the other, my intent was only to run the graphical interface and that was the only guideline I found. Could you please direct me on how how to start psppire as normal user by any chance? Sorry for the basic questions, I am really starting to use the terminal so my abilities are limited.
Thank you very much for your help, much appreciated.
