Re: [apbs-users] Brand new user

You can run APBS natively on OS X ­ the instructions are fairly
straightforward and nearly exactly match the instructions to install from
source on other systems.  That said, there are some gotchas, but I do have
APBS working on my OS X workstation.  I can't speak to VMD itself, since
I'm using Chimera.  I'm wondering if running natively might alleviate some
of the issues you're encountering.

Let me know if you'd like native setup instructions ­ I'd be happy to
share the notes I have.

Hi All,
I am brand new to APBS and am trying to use it in conjunction with VMD.  I
am running both programs on ubuntu through virtual box on a Macbook Pro. I
have followed the tutorial to run APBS with VMD exactly but VMD always
freezes when I hit the run button.  I assume I am making some simple
mistake but have so far not been able to troubleshoot the problem.  I
would appreciate any advice you might have.  Thanks!
