[users] Can't run OO 2.4 on iMac G4 PPC/OSX 10.5.6

[Dave Post]

I downloaded OO 2.4.0 for Mac OSX PPC today and am unable get it  
running.

Whenever I  start OO, it appears briefly and is then replaced by X11,  
which opens an xterm window. After a few seconds, I get an error  
message: "Command timed out."

If I then select OO from my Dock, I get 3 menus: OpenOffice.org, File,  
and Edit. File shows only 1 option: "Use Startup Screen," which is  
grayed out. Edit shows Undo, Cut, Copy, Paste, Clear (all grayed out)  
and Edit Script. The mouse cursor, meanwhile, shows as a slowly  
rotating timer wheel.

So I'm unable to use the program at all. It won't even quit properly  
-- I have to force quit it via Activity Monitor.

I've set X11's preferences according to the instructions on page 5 in  
Howto_OOo_2.0_MacOSX_english.pdf.
