I'm really sorry. I left Demeter in a broken state on github. I am currently at work getting Demeter to use Larch, but it is most certainly not ready for prime-time. I will disable the use of larch in Demeter and push that to github. I am currently at the beamline, so it will be an hour or two before I get to that. I'll post to the list when I do so. At that time, do a "git pull" then rebuild and re-install Demeter. Again, sorry for the confusion. 100% my fault for being sloppy.

Everything went fine during installation but then I tried to start Athena using dathena command from the terminal and I got this message: Demeter says: Uh oh! You have requested using Larch, but there is no Larch server running! Then I installed Larch (with some problems during installation, but that is different story) and again tried starting Athena with the same result. When I tried starting Larch in a server mode with larch -r command it didn't offer a possibility to start Athena in the same terminal window. Then I opened a new tab in the terminal and just typed dathena and the GUI appeared. Now, I have two questions: 1. Do I have to start Larch server every time like this before using Athena or is there some other solution for this? 2. I tried Artemis without Larch server running and didn't get the error message. Is Artemis independent from Larch or are there some problems that might occur later? -- Best wishes, Dr Ivan Stijepović Department of Materials Engineering Faculty of Technology University of Novi Sad Bul. cara Lazara 1 21000 Novi Sad Serbia tel: +381 21 485 3750 fax: +381 21 450 413 e-mail: ivan.stijepovic@gmail.commailto:ivan.stijepovic@gmail.com
