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
