[Openmcl-devel] Crash on Startup / Use of graphical elements

Hello,
i am new to Clozure but would like to use it for lisp-based musical 
composition programs.

I just downloaded "Clozure CL 1.2-rc1-intel"
I run a Macbook Pro with 10.4.11 running; with a Core 2 Duo

The problem is: when i double-click the "Clozure CL" icon it opens in 
the dock and closes again right afterwards again. So i can't really 
start it.
Has anybody an idea why this doesn't work?

I can execute "dx86cl64" in the terminal though - but that's not the 
same right?
it actually works for simple text-based I/Os - but not for graphical 
things.
I for example want to start a lisp-file that starts like this

    (require 'quickdraw)
    (require 'scrolling-windows)
    (require :scrollers)

this should be possible normally with ClozureCL, right?

Any help on how to get the program started correctly and especially on 
how to use these elements, like for example "quickdraw" would be very 
much appreciated.

Thank you very much in advance

Frank Abend
