The terrible scenario described in the end of your reply become true in my case. I had the Tiger's X11 installed under Leopard and performed the 10.5.2 update. Now my X11 is not working at all and I have no idea how to get it working. Does anybody has an idea what to do?

I reverted to the Tiger version of X11 last October, as Leopard's X11 was unusable for me then. I used the guide here: <http://aaroniba.net/articles/x11-leopard.html>.
As Tiger's X11 has been working great for me, I decided to leave it alone until the terrific X11 fixes discussed here made it into an official Mac OS X 10.5 release. It appears that day is here, as Apple just released the Mac OS X 10.5.2 update with what appear to be significant X11 changes!
So, should I just install the (Combo) 10.5.2 update? Or, should I first run the X11 installer from the Leopard CD, and *then* install the 10.5.2 Combo update?
Hm... I tried installing X11.app from Tiger, and then installing 10.5.2, and it didn't work so well -- it seemed to not install properly (meaning, Tiger's X11.app was no overwritten with 10.5.2's.)
If I were you, I'd follow the uninstallation steps and/or reinstall X11.app from the Leopard disc before performing the upgrade. If anyone out there runs into problems, we'll have to try to figure out the best steps to recover. (It shouldn't be too bad, but I don't know off-hand how it would be done most cleanly.)
