Hi,

I am on Macbook pro, 2012, with Mountain Lion, 10.8.2.
My texlive 2012 is up to date : i update it with Tex Live Utility.

I have a problem:
This is my document:

\listfiles
\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{pstricks}
\begin{document}
\begin{pspicture}(0,0)(10cm,2cm)
\psline[linewidth=2pt,linecolor=red](0,0)(10,2)
\end{pspicture}
\end{document}

When I xelatex this simple example, I obtain a one blank page pdf file.

In console, I have this message:
(./ecm.aux) [1] (./ecm.aux)gs requires X11. Please visit http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5293 for more information.

** WARNING ** Filtering file via command -->rungs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dNOSAFER -sPAPERSIZE=a0 -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dCompatibilityLevel=1.5 -dAutoFilterGrayImages=false -dGrayImageFilter=/FlateEncode -dAutoFilterColorImages=false -dColorImageFilter=/FlateEncode -sOutputFile='/var/folders/tx/jz3ygk150jldyb_xjg26tbr40000gn/T//dvipdfmx.yQDiuc2o' '/var/folders/tx/jz3ygk150jldyb_xjg26tbr40000gn/T//dvipdfmx.Y8pRsQwx' -c quit<-- failed.

You may want to report this to tex-k at tug.org

I had a long talk with Herbert Voss this last WE and we don't find a solution. Herbert works on PC, so it is difficult to find the problem on Mac.
I someone can help me...

Thank-you
Fran?ois

gs requires X11.
This is the inportant part of your error.

Unlike Lion, Mountain Lion is delivered without X11. Install XQuartz,
this is an X11 implementation for Mountain Lion
(http://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing/).
