Done. Now X11 quits when I start it.
Open Console.app (to be found in /Applications/Utilities) and
look at the output produced by X11. X11 quitting immediately
can have about 25 different reasons, some of them mentioned in
the Fink FAQ (slightly outdated: <http://fink.sourceforge.net/
doc/x11/ trouble.php#immediate-quit>)
The problem appears to be the font path, which I don't see
listed at the URL. Here is what I get from Console:
XFree86 Version 4.4.0 / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6600)
_XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root
[DRI] screen 0 installation complete
Screen 0 added: 1280x1024 @ (0,0)
Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/,
removing from list!
No, this is not a problem, a simple warning.
~/.xinitrc: line 4: exec: gnome-session: not found
Is your fink installation in /sw?
Yes.
Did you install really bundle-gnome?
I never said I did. I asked what the difference was between "gnome-
desktop" (which I installed) and "bundle-gnome" (which I didn't
install, but I never got a response.
gnome-desktop is a user interface to easily locate information,
access menus, launch applications, and personalize environment for
gnome.
It has no sense without gnome-session (the application which provides
the main access to gnome environnement) or gnome-panel (a reduce
access to gnome environnement).
bundle-gnome is just a set of packages, which ensures you have the
minimal of necessary applications for gnome to work.
Is there a gnome-session in /sw/bin?
Nope. Only the two that I mentioned before: /sw/share/doc and /sw/
share/omf
So, no wonder you cannot launch it.
Install bundle-gnome and you'll have it working.
Cheers,
Michèle
