Since upgrading to v0.2 of X11, my ~/.xinitrc no longer executes on startup of X11, OR when opening a new xterm. I must type "source ~/.xinitrc" in order to have it run. Has anyone else experienced this? Anyone have any suggestions on what it may be?

It shouldn't be executed when opening a new xterm. It should only ever be executed by the X11.app when you start it.


What is in your ~/.xinitrc? Most people seem to have it launch an xterm and a windows manager. What do you see when X11.app starts? You may want to post what's in your .xinitrc that you are not seeing being executed.
