Possible problem with Hello World

If you are running OS X you may get a black screen after you run the Hello World example. This is because the xQuartz terminal defaults to full screen mode. xQuartz is the Apple version of X11. You can get your screen back by typing cmd-h to hide xQuartz. To prevent xQuartz from going into full screen mode open the xQuarts preferences by typing cmd-, (that is the command key and the comma key) then click the output tab and then un-check the full screen button.
