Hi!
i'm going to try kde on my ibook downloading it with fink.
I have installed apple's x11 (downloaded from apple.com), but i've
read about other versions of x11, like the one provided by fink
itself.
My question is: which version is better under kde? why? which version
do you use?
Questions similar to this have been asked enough that I finally wrote up
some of the history of X11 on OSX on the wiki here:
http://wiki.opendarwin.org/index.php/X11
My recommendation is that while X.org 6.8 is technically better than
Apple's X11 as far as bugfixes and optimizations, the difference is not
significant enough that it's worth installing Fink's X.org over it. I'd
say stick with Apple's X11 (and X11 SDK) until X.org 6.9/7.0 comes out
and we can see what kind of improvements are involved.
