Thanks for finding this. We've fixed it for the next version (cannot comment on when that will be).

Has anyone else observed the following behaviour with beta 0.2 (that didn't exist with beta 0.1).
-X11 launches just fine from the Administrator's account (used to install X11) but fails from other accounts with the following console msg:

Fatal server error: Could not create server lock file: /tmp/.X0-lock

You have to remove the lock file manually after quitting X11.app.

This is actually a bug that got worse in beta-2.0.

In 1.0, the lock file was left behind only when you did not quit X11.app via its "Quit" menu option. Now in 10.2 it is always left behind, no matter how you quit X11.app. Not nice.
