It would be better to use the tar.gz as cvs already has some changes.

These messages are to do with threading - the tests run in a different
thread to the main rendering one, so some things get out of sync
sometimes. The run-scripts function needs some work in this regard.

Yup... - I assume you mean run-scripts rather than self-test?

Could you post the output and your machine details on the fluxus list.

That would be great, there is a chance someone will be able to help you,
again ask on the fluxus list. I'm doing a livecoding workshop for
teenagers using fluxus in a few months, it would be good to have a place
to share course materials and discuss approach...
cheers,
