I started X11.app in /Applications/Utilities. But I still got the same error as that in my original post. What's the problem?
You'll need to run gnome-terminal from the initial xterm, or from X11's Application menu, or after starting X11 do "export DISPLAY=:0" in a Terminal.app, or install the update do launchd will do forwarding automatically.
How to run XQuartz update? Do I need to download X11-2.4.0.dmg and install it? What is the difference between X11-2.4.0.dmg and X11.app in /Applications/Utilities?
Yes, download and install X11-2.4.0.dmg. (Note that this won't install on Snow Leopard.)
The big user-visible change is that X11 2.4.0 hooks into launchd, so launchd presets $DISPLAY for you and X11.app will launch automatically if needed. Otherwise it's mostly bugfixes.
If you're going to make significant use of Apple's X11, I suggest subscribing to x11-us...@lists.apple.com.
