RTC dies when I try to render a report with a chart.

I am using RTC 2.0 Client on my Mac (maybe part of the problem - I recognize and will try another platform). I am creating a report against the RTC Live Snapshot/Tables. When I create the report with tabular data and preview the report, all runs well. However as soon as I create a report with chart data and click preview, the entire client crashes. Any ideas?

Hi
Do you have an Adobe Flash player installed on your system - you need this for the webUI, and I am wondering if this is needed on the Eclipse client too.
Keep logging queries about Mac clients - I know a few people who run RTC on Mac's (and at least one who would love to have a Mac to run RTC on :-)

Is there an error in the client .log file? If this is a persistent
mac-based issue, a search on BIRT bugs on this platform might yield some
clues.
