Have X11 installed (it shows up as running plus I have had Open Office running previously).
Double clicking on Ardour begins the boot but ends with a quit before anything happens.
Console log is as follows:

Any suggestions? I have rebuilt permissions already; no effect.
I fear that this might be another bug in the startup script. It seems ardour is installed in a directory structure containing a colon. Please see if moving Ardour to a directory structure which does not contain the ‘:’ character helps. If that helps, please report back so we can fix the startup script.
Otherwise, the contents of /Users/intlgraph/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/ardour.crash.log might shed some light on this issue.
It’s not actually a colon when you look at it in the Mac Finder. It is a / which gets translated to a : at a lower level.
It has something to do with how the Mac OSX interfaces with Windows. We have been getting away with using “/” for a while now even though it’s use is discouraged because of the compatability issue with Windows.
Freedom of expression can get you in trouble sometimes…
