I commented out 'DISPLAY=:0' from .bashrc. I also had 'DISPLAY=0.0"
in .profile for MacPorts which I also commented out. Ya baby! It now
works; I can launch OOo -- oh, and there is only one X11 icon in the
dock, as it should be. Thanks Jeremy!

Don't set DISPLAY in your .bashrc ... that's your problem.

Hi Jeremy,
Thanks for the reply. I tried your suggestion.
- Installed 2.2.0_rc2. Rebooted.
- X11 is not running.
- @naiad ~] OOo

There were no new messages in Console.app. However, system.log
displayed the following:

You shouldn't need to have X11 already running for this to work.
It should just connect to your $DISPLAY (which you aren't setting
manually, right?).
I just run this:
/Applications/OpenOffice.org\ 2.3.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice
which should be the same as what you're doing. Can you please
install 2.2.0_rc2 and try. This shouldn't "fix" the issue, but it
will hopefully give a helpful message in Console.app that will
indicate what is going on. So please look through Console.app's
output and report the associated messages.
Thanks,
Jeremy

I have a hunch this has been discussed in the past ... to
overcome a few problems with XQuartz and OpenOffice.org I'm
starting 'soffice' from the command line (from my .bash_aliases):
alias OOo='open /Applications/OpenOffice.org\ 2.3.app/Contents/
MacOS/soffice &'
This requires me to have X11 already running. I end up with two
X11 icons in my dock. Is this normal behavior with XQuartz 2.1.4?
Any suggestions? Tips?
