If you install X11 extensions (check the MAC web site) there is a
Window/manager X11 application which lets you restart whatever session
and windows manager you want if its installed.
For example I have gnome and I use Sawfish windows manager. When I exit
the session all my x windows loose the Sawfish window surrounds. From
the drop down box you can select X11 then click on apple widows manager
and start. This start X and quartz-wm and your borders return. Cool.
I also have KDE and Enlightenment.

When I first tried X11 beta just after release I did not have this
problem. Just the other day when I was refreshing a Jaguar
installation on my desktop, I started OpenOffice in X11 and it did
not have any Aqua window borders or header bar. I cannot re-size or
move my windows and therefore making X11 useless. Help. I don't want
to go back to XDarwin.
Is there a workaround?
When I first started X11 I didn't have any borders. Do you have
anything in ~/.xinitrc? Mine was left over from using
XDarwin/OroborOSX and it prevented the Aqua interface from showing up.
I think if you remove that file, X11 will give you back the default
behavior. My current .xinitrc file contains some initialization and
then a "quartz-wm &".

I found this directory ~/.xinitrc and removed it and it worked. I am
still a Unix newbie and had trouble finding the directory (Is -l would
not show it).
Thanks for your help guy's.
