Josh, here's the note I sent out to our Mac community:

  Here's the Tiger version of X11:

  Here's how to install it:

Basically, this gave me a largely-working Leopard system (still a few
issues with NIS and PAM authentication, I think -- haven't tracked
them down yet).

By the way, I really appreciate some of the other improvements in the
BSD subsystem of Leopard!

Bill
