Thank you very much William! Your hints were right, and my macports system is ok again. All +system_x11 variants (also the line in variants.conf) are deactivated and reinstalled. I used grep and awk to get a script to do so according your description. I thank also Jeremy Huddleston to shed some light on the macports system. I use macports on Tiger 10.4.11 PPC, and if I gonna switch to leopard I'll try his propoasal to install macports with the Xquartz Server from apple. I think that is not an option for me with tiger. xdvi etc. are working again, but xpdf gives new error messages (but no longer X related.): :~]$ > xpdf & [1] 18214 :~]$ > Error: No paper information available - using defaults Error: No display font for 'Courier' Error: No display font for 'Courier-Bold' Error: No display font for 'Courier-BoldOblique' Error: No display font for 'Courier-Oblique' Error: No display font for 'Helvetica' Error: No display font for 'Helvetica-Bold' Error: No display font for 'Helvetica-BoldOblique' Error: No display font for 'Helvetica-Oblique' Error: No display font for 'Symbol' Error: No display font for 'Times-Bold' Error: No display font for 'Times-BoldItalic' Error: No display font for 'Times-Italic' Error: No display font for 'Times-Roman' Error: No display font for 'ZapfDingbats' Error: Couldn't find per display information [1]+ Exit 1 xpdf I'm using X11.app from apple as an xserver, because startx doesn't work: xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): no server "/opt/local/bin/X" in PATH Is this as expected?
