I'd like to try out the Merge network, and have downloaded several MacOSX clients (Carbon, PokerView, GeoBet).
I ran the installers, drop in Applications, and run, but all them these so far have simply quit running as soon as I start the app.

Do any Merge clients work on recent MacOS 10.7?

It should work as long as you download the mac version. I have a mac and I downloaded lock and carbon just fine. I believe all the skins are mac compatible as well.

Yes, I've downloaded them fine (Mac .dmg's), and installed them fine. It's just when I run them they start, show up in the dock for maybe 1 second at most, and then die. No message, no error, just die-- the app quits without ever displaying any window or anything.

I'm just wondering if this is a known issue, or if anyone else has seen this, or if there's just something wrong on my system.

I guess I'd have to see what is going wrong to fix it. If you need help still email me I might be able to help you figure out the problem. I'm sure it is something simple.

After searching, I found this:

Merge apps appear to be poorly written and don't work on Case-sensitive filesystems.
So, had to partition off part of the hard drive as non-case-sensitive and move the application there, rather than in /Applications.
Steam (steampowered.com) has the same problem.

The post in the carbon forum was 9 months ago, and it looks like they still haven't fixed the problem.
