OK, thanks. Here is my e-mail to the list:

X11 on MacBook.

My daughter just got a MacBook a few days ago and I thought that I
would install X11 and Fink on her computer. To my surprise, there
have been some changes since I installed ditto on my G5 single.
Firstly, I noticed that XDarwin is installed rather than a vanilla
X11, so I decided to play it cautiously and install Fink and Gedit to
see how that would work. After install, which seemed to be a little
on the slow side, I fired up Gedit and to my suprise, I got a whole
bunch of greenish windows (including one with an analog clock!) and
Gedit. Gedit seems to work fine, but I am wondering where all of
these windows came from. Is this part of what Fink installs with the
various libs that Gedit needs or is this something with XDarwin? How
do you manage or get rid of all of these windows? Does Fink now need
a window manager to run with the installed packages or is this some
sort of XDarwin quirk?

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Brian
