I am porting some video data analysis scripts (written in IDL) to Linux just now. Installing was the usual struggle: Archimedes' mainboard is not supported by older OS's, so 10.3 it had to be. On the other hand, the slightly dated IDL version (new licences are pretty expensive) doesn't work with xorg-x11-libs > 6.8. Makeshift workaround: install/deinstall the old lib before and after using IDL and use no other graphical apps inbetween. I'm not amused.
Should have learned Python right away.
