Hi,
  If VMD exits immediately, this may be a sign of problems with your
OpenGL installation.  What do you get if you run "glxinfo" on the same
machine in the same ways you tested VMD?  If you get warnings about GLX
missing, that's a likely source of problems for VMD as well.  Assuming that
you've got gdb installed, you can also run VMD like this:
  vmd -debug

When you get the gdb prompt, just type "run" and when it halts, 
type the command "where" and tell me what it says.

Hi all,
  I have a problem with vmd installation procedure. I downloaded
  vmd-1.8.4b6.bin.LINUXAMD64.opengl.tar.gz in my home, which is imported
  from a server by ldap.
  I have untared and followed the procedure properly. Everything went
  fine. However, typing vmd I see starting vmd and the window close
  immediately!
  The strange is that if I log in in the server by using ssh -X, it runs
  exporting X. I would like to use vmd without log in in the server by
  ssh.
  I see the script vmd and I couldn't find the problem. It should run,
  isn't?
  Thanks in advance
  Regards,
  Andrea
