Also, when I try to launch it from a terminal window, I get the
following output:
"7625-46:~ nicolasloeuille$ startx

waiting for X server to shut down Quitting XDarwin..."
It seems that the error comes from SecurityPolicy. There is no such file
in the direcory mentionned by the output. I found it in
/etc/X11.AppleBackup/xserver/ but I cannot write into the directory
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xserver/
A normal installation of Apple's X11 has the following entry in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/
xserver -> ../../../../etc/X11/xserver
This means hat the SecurityPolicy is found in
/etc/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy
If you have something else, you should perhaps reinstall your
X11User.pkg and/or X11Update2006.pkg.
What do you have in your ~/.xinitrc file?
Just an alias I have created a long time ago (alias ..="cd ..")
If your ~/.xinitrc exists, X11.app will execute it and shut down as soon
as every command in the file is executed. Therefore your ~/.xinitrc
needs to contain a last command that does not finish, usually something like
exec quartz-wm
