Yes. Please download the correct dmg-file via
http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/download/index.html

Right ! The X11 is on your install-disk which comes with your Mac.


I think all these question and a lot more will be answered if you  
have a look into

http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/support.html (the howto is provided  
in several languages)

and there is a nice FAQ

http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/faq/index.html

I'm sure this will answer your question.
