User Accounts and Modul8

I am creating a new user just for VJ'ing and am experiencing some strange behaviour w/Modul8. The program launched, and asked me for my serial#, which I entered and it recognized, but now when I launch Modul8 - all it will show me is the splash screen - and nothing else. I wait but no program screen shows. The splash screen floats on top of everything so I have to move the 'quit' and 'clear this project' dialogs to dismiss them. When I switch back to my normal user, the program behaves properly.
PBG4 1.25 AlBook, X.3.4, 512MB RAM, QT6.5 anything else you need to know?

I'll check that. Maybe a permissions problem...

Ok, I found the problem !
Well I will fix it for the next minor release.
For the moment you can make a new copy of modul8 in your home user and it works.
making a copy works.

My experience with multiple user.
New account made on the machine were licensed copy of M8 was installed.
launch app from applications menu - asks for serial
M8 rejects serial
Anyone else have this problem?

Hi,
It seems to be broken again. I tried launching both the normal program and the copy but both give me just the splash screen when I am using my other (streamlined) account.
any other suggestions for a workaround?
Cheers,
Marco

Hmmm... Try to remove the application and reinstall it from the archive.
Let me know if it still does not work.
It's cleary a permission problem.
