I ran through the removal process, trashed Apple's x11 and installed  
xfree86 4.5.0-1040. Starting rootless I went to the prefrences and  
after a few seconds X quit. log:

        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)
