OSX 10.8.2 XQuartz/Inkscape

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to get Inkscape to work on 10.8.2. From what I've found you need to install XQuartz (X11 replacement). I'm having issues with this for some reason.

 

I can't find anything on the Xquartz wiki so I'm asking here: does anyone know where this installs to? I can't find it in my applications. When I try to launch Inkscape it asks to be directed to X11 or something related (Xquartz), but I can't find where it lives.

 

Any help is appreciated,

 

-Paul

Found it in Utilties, but it just opens a terminal window and sits. Any idea how to get this to run with Xquartz?

 

 

Edit: It works. Carry on :)

I have 8.2 but use a windows machine for my design and cutting../but just in case, how about some further explanation?

I had a hole lot of issues with this at first but I remember the first time I loaded up Inkscape it took quite awhile to start up

I don't remember what really happened on the back end, It just started working after a few tries. Has been working fine since
