Strange but true ;) I hope is not the disk as this is a brand new
disk. But also I don't knwo if the disk has anything to do as
everything works fine until I make the X11 Update 2006.

This is the ls -al /usr/X11R6/lib/ before the X11 Update 2006 has been executed.
The file dates are Jan 27 1971!!!
And after the update:

Is only being bad, because there is no such file or the link is missing.

For now I have a clean system with no tools installed, but the Apple's updates.
Here is the install.log

I will install the X11 Update 2006 and see what has changed.
By the way, on the PowerBook G4 would you know if there is a maximum
size that the disk can be. The disk I have is 160Gb:
