Guy:

I did not think of this option.  The XFree package is not directly
available from
the foundation's web page for the Mac, however, Fink (a porting project to
bring programs
from the UNIX world to the Mac world) does have an XFree package
available.

To user Fink you first have to install the Fink basic package and then
install other
packages using it.  I will warn, however, that there are dependencies to
the XFree
package from what I remember and it may take a long time to
install.  Apple makes
it easier by combining all that is needed into one very neat package.

Hello James

I admit I haven't tried out to download from XFree86. Just thought about the
possibility because OP hasn't got his Mac OSX Installation disks - and I
don't think the X11 update to version 1.1.3 works when you haven't got an
older version on your computer. Don't know about Fink...
