This risk is marginal.  The current 'stable' xquartz 2.3.2 still 
flickers the hell out of my external screen.  Every night I pray to a 
different god for version 2.4 to actually work.

Thanking you in advance for all the help...

Prayer might be making it worse, depending upon the wrath and  
vindictiveness of the imaginary deity of choice:

I guess bug reports to Apple might fall into a similar category, but  
might be worth a try, failing human sacrifice.

Dear Friends,
   I am using a Mac OS X Version 10.5.6 with Intel Core 2 Duo  
Processor. At present I have the X Window system --- Xquartz 2.1.5 -  
(xorg-server 1.3.0-apple22) (2.1.5).
I installed many crystallographic tools through fink. When I am  
updating fink, it stopped with an error message as follows:

Ihave been suggested to update X11 to solve this problem. I have two  
questions:


1. How I can update X11?


Go to this web page, and download and install it:
http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/xquartz

2. If I update X11, whether it will cause any problem to the  
existing programs?

pressure. In the current economic crisis, this could be enough to  
cause the collapse of the world's pharmaceutical industries.
