Hi Josef,

The SCIRun thirdparty version distributed with SCIRun 4.1 is incompatible with the newer X11 API that is available with many Linux distributions. We are working on a new SCIRun release that will fix this problem. In the meanwhile, you can attempt to patch the Tk code in SCIRun/thirdparty.bin/src with:

Let me know if this doesn't work for you.
