The biggest one I've got right now is that xterms aren't picking up the correct size. Running resize in each new xterm seems to fix this.

Yeah, that's a known issue with xterm. The same binary fails on SL that works on Leopard, so there's nothing that I can really do right now. You can just set that resource in your ~/.Xresources to work around it for now... My "fix" for it in 2.4.1 will be to just enable that option by default.


I also have been having some really flaky cut-buffer problems between
X and Apple apps. Mostly cut X text doesn't get into the Apple cut- buffer.

This code is identical to what is in 2.4.0 and I think is the same as what's in 2.3.3.2. Please be specific and file a bug report at http://xquartz.macosforge.org


The only known issue with the pasteboard sync is dealing with "special" types.

And lastly, I lost my cool new X server icon in the dock. ;-)

Yeah... the "OSX" version needed to keep the old X11 icon...

I thought I understood that the server and clients can be installed
separately, but I'm not sure how to do that.

Well, the package we distribute is the server and core apps and libs, but you don't need a server on the system to install the client libs and binaries...


What's very disgraceful
(on my part) is that 95% of my X11 use is running xterms.

That pretty much goes for me, too... although I've been spending time working on other apps to replace some apps with X11 versions (I've got firefox-x11 3.5.2 working in MacPorts, and I use pan for usenet, etc).
