Thanks for the suggestions. I tried to redirect the output to .xinitrc.log and
here is what it gives:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

X11 exits with a grey screen displaying an error message in the middle (see

My .xinitrc file is limited to the absolute minimum:
#!/bin/sh
set -xexec 2>$HOME/.xinitrc.log
# start some nice programs
/opt/local/bin/gnome-session & /opt/local/bin/metacity
Any ideas at this point?

Good evening.
Xquartz may use your $HOME/.xinitrc if you have one, otherwise it will use a
default.
If you have $HOME/.xinitrc, I would add the following as the 3 first lines in
$HOME/.xinitrc.
#! /bin/sh
set -x
exec 2>$HOME/.xinitrc.log
…
This will trace the whole bootstrap-sequence for Xquartz to $HOME/.xinitrc.log
Hope that will help you.
Regards
Trond.
