Hi.  I had same problem.  This is what I did.

To run from X11 window I copied my xinitrc (no .) file to my home
directory as .xinitrc and added a line after #!/bin/sh

cp /etc/x11/xinit/xinitrc ~/.xinitrc

then source as  . /sw/bin/init.rc

You can probably edit /etc/x11/xinit/xinitrc directly if you want to.

OR

You can run from terminal prompt if you type 

/usr/bin/open-x11 before the app that you want to start

ex. /usr/bin/open-x11 xinvaders
