I'm having trouble with X windows. I have 10.9.5, and I have downloaded X from https://www.xquartz.org/releases/XQuartz-2.7.11.html.
I not only logged out, I restarted my computer. I still cannot get it to start up. Running xinit gave this in the log: Jan 1 19:39:57 keybounceMBP org.macosforge.xquartz.X11.stub[28817]: launch_msg("CheckIn") IPC failure: Operation not permitted Jan 1 19:39:57 keybounceMBP org.macosforge.xquartz.X11.stub[28817]: Xquartz: Unable to locate waiting server: org.macosforge.xquartz.X11 Jan 1 19:39:57 keybounceMBP org.macosforge.xquartz.X11.stub[28818]: Xquartz: Starting X server: /Applications/Utilities/XQuartz.app/Contents/MacOS/X11 --listenonly Jan 1 19:40:17 keybounceMBP org.macosforge.xquartz.X11.stub[28817]: Xquartz: bootstrap_look_up(): Unknown service name And xinit gave me this output: waiting for X server to begin accepting connections . .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. . xinit: giving up xinit: unable to connect to X server: Operation timed out xinit: server error michael$ echo $DISPLAY /tmp/launch-SNmCyz/org.macosforge.xquartz:0 michael$ which xinit /opt/X11/bin/xinit I am in need of the X11 from xquartz, and not the one from macports, because I have an old commercial program I'm trying to run that is linked against the stuff in /opt/X11 specifically.
