Oh sorry, I didn't read your post carefully enough before. Are you saying that
you can't start any X11 applications from a Terminal.app window if you started
Terminal.app before you started the X server? I don't see why that should happen.
Are you setting the DISPLAY environment variable for your shell? If you type
'echo $DISPLAY' you should get something like ':0' or ':0.0'.
