Hmm, i got xephem installed but I have 2 problems:
1: the calendar - i put in TZ of PST and then click update - so far so good
I then click on View menu and select Whole sky and the program just
exits.
2: when i restart it the TZ says XXX

I've tried UTC-8 PST PDT and it just does the same thing in 1&2 above
How do i get this to run?

BTW: I have kstars is running now, nice!

Thanks
Eric
