I used X11 under Mac OS X 10.3.6 just last week with no problems.


Well, I have located the culprit. In the X11.app's X11 Preferences window there are 3 tabbed panes: Input, Output and Security.




etc.

As a follow-up. The following terminal command makes my X11 setup work when it is not working:

defaults write com.apple.x11 no_auth -boolean true

whereas the following command breaks my X11 setup:

defaults write com.apple.x11 no_auth -boolean false

These clearly are the same as unchecking and checking the authentication button in the X11 app's preferences window.

I still don't know why this suddenly became a major issue for me and my previously stable X11 life.
