Not exactly what you're trying, but have you considered OroborOSX? http://julia.et.ic.ac.uk/adrian/software/oroborosx/ > However, despite the "0mb" line, XFree (both base, as well as the > convenience pack, on different occasions) installs.

'startx' is typically in (I think) something like /usr/X11R6/bin/startx -- are you getting X's basedir in your path? > So basically, i am xless now, and therefore hurting.

It makes setting up & running X -- on top of Aqua or by itself from the console -- easy. Simple OSXish pkg installer too. -- Chris Devers "Okay, Gene... so, -1 x -1 should equal what?"
