(Sorry for the double, Eric) Hi, I'm having similar problems. I've reinstalled DevTools (July2k, no updates), and installed X via the Xinstall app from http://umn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/xonx/XInstall_10.1.sit . This installs 4.2.0. As with Lamont, this _has_ worked, but no longer. I don't recall it working since I installed Jaguar, actually. (I'm sending this to fink folk as well, but I thought I'd cast my line here.) When I start up from console, I get the gray X screen, and a spinning mac lollipop (in grayscale?), which sits there forever doing nothing until I reboot. Starting from terminal (startx -- -quartz, standard permissions) yesterday gave something similar, where it was waiting for Xwindows to begin accepting events (or something like that, I didn't write it down, stupidly) and it waited until I tired of it. Starting from the terminal (starx -- -quartz, standard permissions) gives the following: "" 2002-10-31 11:53:45.511 XDarwin[480] XDarwin 1.1 Running in parallel with Mac OS X Quartz window server.

"" libSystem.B.dylib doesn't exist, although libSystem.dylib (a binary) does. ~/.Xauthority doesn't exist, but .Xauth-OSX does. I'm loathe to change anything in /usr/lib/, though I suppose I could try renaming .Xauth-OSX to .Xauthority Any hints?
