Whoops!! It ain't working after all! XQuartz runs but no 'Wined" app will run. xterm, xeyes and other 'built-in' apps run but not 'Wined' ones.On Jan 6, 2012, at 1:27 PM, Jeremy Huddleston wrote:
Before you reboot, what is the output of:
ls -ld /tmp/.ICE-unix /tmp/.X11-unix /tmp/.font-unix
drwxrwxrwt 2 root wheel 68 Jan 6 19:19 /tmp/.ICE-unix drwxrwxrwt 3 root wheel 102 Jan 6 19:19 /tmp/.X11-unix drwxrwxrwt 2 root wheel 68 Jan 6 19:19 /tmp/.font-unix
Try rebooting and before doing anything else, just run this from Terminal:
ls -ld /tmp/.ICE-unix /tmp/.X11-unix /tmp/.font-unix
ls: /tmp/.ICE-unix: No such file or directory ls: /tmp/.X11-unix: No such file or directory ls: /tmp/.font-unix: No such file or directory /opt/X11/lib/X11/xinit/privileged_startx
(no output)
ls -ld /tmp/.ICE-unix /tmp/.X11-unix /tmp/.font-unix
drwxrwxrwt 2 root wheel 68 Jan 6 19:37 /tmp/.ICE-unix drwxrwxrwt 2 root wheel 68 Jan 6 19:37 /tmp/.X11-unix drwxrwxrwt 2 root wheel 68 Jan 6 19:37 /tmp/.font-unix
ie, I want to see those directories before and after running privileged_startx

Judging by your earlier responses, my guess is that something prevented the LaunchDaemon from running, thus preventing the directory to be created, thus preventing the socket from being created, thus aborting server startup. I don't know *why* that was the case, and I've never seen something like this happen. ...
I know it sounds crazy, but I am disappointed that it is now working without knowing *why*. I was hoping to learn how to track down the real issues behind the problem and fix them. I have come across so many people who cannot get commercially 'packaged' "Wined" apps to work, e.g. GIMP, theWord, because X11/XQuartz ain't working right.
Well point them to this list or have them file bug reports. I can't fix bugs that I don't know about... ;) If you find out anything more about what went wrong, please let me know.
