Re: 10.5 X11 8-bit display problems

Today I tried an erase/install of Leopard without X11, then added the Tiger X11. When I started X11 it bounced and produced a second dock icon, but then quit immediately. So it does seem necessary to install the Leopard X11 first.

I think the issue here is the location of quartz-wm which gets installed on Leopard not as part of X11 (obviously!) but as part of BSD.pkg. If Tiger X11 tries to use the Leopard quartz-wm it breaks. You need to remove quartz-wm from /usr/bin before using Tiger X11.
