Hi Jeff

Yes, that worked. What was throwing me was the system message that a later version of X11 was already on the hd. Installing from the CD then updating worked fine. I did read the porting document, and as I recall, it really didn't cover this issue in much depth; I'll review it to see if I just overlooked it. Also, I had thought it would be in the faq file as I felt it was not an unknown issue, but couldn't access it for some reason. No matter, it's going now.

Thanks
bill

Bill,

You need to use the one which is included on your System disks.

The X11*User* package in the following location:
*Mac OS X Install Disc 1 - /System/Installation/Packages/X11User.pkg*

This, and other MacOSX settings related to this, are in an oft-quoted
resource which you should get/read.

hih,

I'm trying to run OO on a new Intel based Mac, and encountering the
following: When I try to launch OO, it says I need X11. When I
downloaded X11, I get a message saying that a newer version of the
software is already installed. So OO wants X11 and X11 won't install
because it's outdated. Any suggestions?

TIA
