Friends,
I downloaded the latest chimera build and installed it successfully without
any error. When i give chimera in command line, i get the following error.
But when i start the chimera 1.3 version, it works without any problem. I am
using the latest build in Fedora 10.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/chimera_new/share/__main__.py", line 65, in <module>
    value = chimeraInit.init(sys.argv)
  File "/usr/local/chimera_new/share/chimeraInit.py", line 374, in init
    tkgui.initializeGUI(exitonquit, debug_opengl)
  File "CHIMERA/share/chimera/tkgui.py", line 2587, in initializeGUI
  File "/usr/local/chimera_new/lib/python2.5/site-packages/PIL/__init__.py",
line 309, in checkConfig

  File "/usr/local/chimera_new/lib/python2.5/site-packages/Togl.py", line

    Tkinter.Widget.__init__(self, master, "togl", cnf, kw)

in __init__
    (widgetName, self._w) + extra + self._options(cnf))
_tkinter.TclError: couldn't choose pixel format
Couldn't configure togl widget

Thanks,
Bala
