I just installed xfree86 and am trying to start X via XDarwin. I get the splash screen asking about "full screen" or "rootless", but regardless of which I choose, it just dies.
I thought it was my .xinitrc file, (which I didn't have) so I copied the one in /private/etc, but it was completely blank! Ok, no problem, added the source /sw/bin/init.sh but still XDarwin doesn't load.
Are you running a window manager in your .xintirc as well?
the console info I'm getting is as follows:
XFree86 Version 4.4.0 / X Window System (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6600) Release Date: 29 February 2004 If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your hardware is newer than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting problems. (See http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ) Operating System: Darwin Apple Computer, Inc. Could not find keymapping file USA.keymapping. Reading keymap from the system. _XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root Loading GLX bundle glxCGL.bundle (using Apple's OpenGL) Display mode: Rootless Quartz -- Xplugin implementation PseudoramiX screen 0 added: 1024x747 @ (0,21).

This looks odd.
Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/, removing from list!
Quitting XDarwin...
i'm sure i'm missing something simple, but I'm not seeing it right now.
thanks.
