We're having a bunch of problems with the X11 2.3.1 package.
1) In the Customize Applications panel, the "Command" and "Name" titles are reversed.
Wow, I can't believe nobody noticed that before. It's fixed now in git.
2) Frequently, the Applications menu stops being able to launch Xterms.
Explain what you mean by this? Is there anything useful in system.log?
3) We're getting occasional freezes of the whole X11 system.
I have attached a system.log output from one of the machines that's having the most severe problems.
I don't see anything that would show a hang of X11 there. Do you have a trace?
I can only hope that stepping back to 2.3.0 works, and that I don't have to rebuild a whole bunch of machines. But somehow I doubt it today.
I'd recommend trying 2.3.2_rc2 instead of going down to 2.3.0. 2.3.2_rc2 is very usable. There are a few quirks with quartz-wm with the maximize button, but there is a fix for that in the other thread. The only thing blocking it at this point from release is more GLX updates.
