I'm still on X11 2.1.1 but I already had the issue you reported with X11 2.1.1rc1 or so but it dissapeared in the final 2.1.1. release. Since the Startscript already behaved poorly with the original X11 shipping with Leopard and showing a Timeout error I already had an alias set for OOo, alias OOo="open /Applications/OpenOffice.org\ 2.3.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice &" in my .bash_profile. Now I only type OOo in the terminal and OOo launches. That another terminal window opens showing an error may be a bug in either Apple's terminal, X11 or Xquartz. But besides that this for me this is the best workaround on Leopard. I haven't done any Applescript yet so I'm not the guy to rewrite our existing Startscript for Leopard but maybe someone else is able to do it. > However, given that you are, I may look into this project and see > if it works with Tiger. It won't work with Tiger. Leopards X11 is based on X.org while Tiger X11 is based on Xfree86. You may be able to compile the X.org X11 with Tiger but it's not that easy. After two days still installing and compiling the depencies through MacPorts I finally gave up and reinstalled the X11 from the Tiger DVD again. > Also, why did you upgrade X11? Was it not working for you? There were some issues with remote login and various other stuff in the X11 or better Xquartz release shipping with Leopard. While I don't need remote login various users depend on it or want it to work so they updated their X11 package.
