It is in fact a big, frustrating PITA to use X11 successfully! But the rewards are a lot of fun.ĪLSO NOTE: Apple are no longer going to provide X11 with Mac OS X! It come with the Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion installer. It takes unfathomable patience to use X11 because it is designed by geeks for geeks, not for average or even intermediate users. I also have unfathomably patience setting up this geek level stuff. But I am a geek and I have taken the time to learn how to use this. Don't write a one star review out of ignorance. If you don't know what X11 is, if you don't know what MacPorts are or what Fink/Porticus/PortAuthority/Pallet are, then don't download XQuartz. It requires knowledge of using the CLI found in the Terminal app for full capability. The XQuartz project is typically well ahead of what Apple provide. This is where Apple contributes to and sources what they provide with Mac OS X as X11.
