X11 2.1.1

Released: 2007.12.11

This release contains Xquartz-1.3.0-apple5.

Installation

Download X11-2.1.1.pkg, and open it to install with Leopard's Installer. You will need to have Leopard's X11 package installed. If you uninstalled it or deselected it during your OS install, please install it from the installation DVD.

Important Notices

Restart Notice

Because we've changed the way launchd starts the server, you will need to restart your machine after installation.

Moving X11.app

If you move /Applications/Utilities/X11.app, you will also need to edit /System/Library/LaunchAgents/org.x.X11.plist to reflect this change. If you don't edit this file to reflect such changes, launchd will not know how to start the server.

You will be able to move X11.app without editing /System/Library/LaunchAgents/org.x.X11.plist in the next release.

Changing Start Application

This release integrated X11 and X11_launcher, so to disable xterm from starting when you run X11.app, do the following:

defaults write org.x.X11 app_to_run /usr/bin/true
