I was just wondering if anyone else had gotten antsy about using XQuartz with Snow Leopard? I got real antsy and used Pacifist to open up the XQuartz package.....following it's structure I manually installed XQuartz 2.4.0 into Snow Leopard and it's been running perfectly ever since.

Now after reading the warning on the website I wonder if that was such a good idea?

It was a bad idea. I put a "requires OSX < 10.6" requirement on the package for a reason...


You're now using a 32bit Xserver, and if a future SU updates the server to 64bit (which it likely will), you'll have a 64bit executable that is finding 32bit-only libraries...

I suggest you nuke it and reinstall the X11User.pkg from the DVD...
