This is too weird for me. While the 10.5.5 Combo was installing, I called up an iTerm window to check something on our ftp site. the X11 (XQuartz 3.2.1) started just like it was before under 10.5.4 The combo installer finished, the machine restarted, and ... nothing, no X11. iTerm failed to call X11, IDL 7 failed to start.

Top shows only one X11 running, and 2 shells (for the two iTerm windows).

As for the output you requested, in the first iTerm, was:

Last login: Wed Sep 17 16:24:16 on console
^C
apollo18:~ rblack$ /Applications/Utilities/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11
X11.app: main(): argc=1
       argv[0] = /Applications/Utilities/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11

And what after that. There should certainly be more output than that. You should see a line about waiting for startup options via Mach IPC.


The second window failed to launch xterm. If you can figure out something, great. If not, I'll simply revert back to 10.4.11. I've wasted too much time with this buggy OS.

Defined failed to start. Was there an error message? Did it hang? What was the output to the system log during this time.


BTW, I heard Leopard uses X11R7. If so, how come I only see X11R6 in /usr?

It's /usr/X11
