From your log entries I see a lot of unexpected end of file (EOF)
errors. You could have disk directory damage. I would boot from the
installer CD and run disk utility or start up in single user mode and
run fsck -fy. Reinstall X11 and in Terminal.app delete
any .serverauth. files in your home directory: rm -i ~/.serverauth.*
(the -i makes the system ask you to confirm deleting each file)

Hello everyone, English is not my mother tongue so may not be
exactly correct, sorry about that.
Background:
I have a MacBook White (13-inch, Mid 2009) that isn't unibody, and
was running Leopard 10.5.
I am the only one that will use the Mac and my user account is as
the 'admin'.
When I was using 10.5, I could open the 'X11.app'.
But few days ago, I did a clean installation of 10.6.2 Snow Leopard
from the USD$29 disc.
After that I installed the iLife '09 (the gray disc bundled with the
MacBook),
and I cloned the drive to my ext. FireWire HD immediately after the
installation of SL and iLife'09 by using the CCC (Carbon Copy Cloner).
After that, of course, I was going to install the apps I need, and
update the software.
But the problem appears:
When I try to open the 'X11.app', the X11 icon begins jumping on the
Dock, but nothing happens.
Jumping and jumping... finally, it doesn't jump any more, with just
the X11 icon on the dock.
What's more, there is no white dot under the icon, which means the
app isn't running at the moment.
I right-clicked the icon, it shows me 'application not responding'.
So, I open the Activity Monitor, and I can see there are two apps
related to X11 are running:
(1) X11
(2) X11.bin
Please see below for the system log (around 1min. log, starting with
the time when I open the X11)
