Hi again, Same issues still. I just reinstalled X11-2.3.2_rc4.pkg. I then followed these instructions: curl -LO http://static.macosforge.org/xquartz/downloads/X11.bin-1.4.2-apple29.bz2 bunzip2 X11.bin-1.4.2-apple29.bz2 sudo cp X11.bin-1.4.2-apple29 /Applications/Utilities/X11.app/Contents/ MacOS/X11.bin sudo chmod 755 /Applications/Utilities/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11.bin (Actually, I followed the first two and then moved X11.bin-1.4.2-apple29 to /Applications/Utilities/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/ I then changed its permissions to 755 and did sudo chown root X11.bin-1.4.2-apple29 . Finally I edited the X11 script in that directory, changing X11.bin to X11.bin-1.4.2-apple29 ) The situation is actually worse than I reported previously. With X11 set for full-screen mode but not open, I type xeyes in Terminal. This starts X11, and for an instant I see the eyes, but then they disappear and I see an empty gray screen. Two successive toggles using command-option-a and then I see the xeyes window, but it's in front of my Desktop, not on a gray background. And if I click on that Desktop I activate Finder. What's wrong with my system? That is the right binary you posted the link to, right? Sorry for taking your time, Louis On Mon, 22 Dec 2008 15:56:58 -0500 "Zulli, Louis P" <zullil@lafayette.edu> wrote:
Well, now I'm puzzled. Will reinstall X11-2.3.2_rc4.pkg. Afterwards I'll replace X11.bin with your latest version, as I did early this morning. Is there something else I need to update too?
Then I'll try again.

Well I can't reproduce your findings at all... sorry...

OK, I'll report it officially. Unless I'm mistaken, this seems like a significant regression, in that full-screen mode is simply not working---the root window becomes "lost" forever after one application of command-option-a. Try starting X11 by typing xeyes in Terminal, with X11 set for full-screen mode. Then do command-option-a twice in succession. No more gray root window.
Things seemed much better with the X11.bin from Dec. 17; I just put it back in place and checked.

Hi Jeremy,
I dropped in the new X11.bin. I see "XQuartz 2.3.2_rc4 (xorg- server 1.4.2-apple29)" in the About X11 window, so the binary is being used.
I'm having root window problems, perhaps similar to those reported by Viv Kendon, if memory serves. For reference, I have the X11 "Full- screen mode" box checked and the "Auto-show menu bar in full-screen mode" unchecked.
With X11.app not open, I type "xsetroot -solid red" in Terminal. This automatically starts X11. I click on the X11 dock icon and I see a solid red screen. I do "command-option-a" and my Desktop appears with X11 as the active application. I immediately do another "command-option-a" and the menu bar disappears but no red screen. I still see my Desktop, and clicking on it simply activates Finder.
I don't think this was not one of the issues that Viv reported... (or if it was, it was one that I can't dig up and fell through the cracks). Please report this at http://xquartz.macosforge.org so it doesn't get lost. If I can come up with a fix in the next few days, I'll include it... otherwise it will have to wait for 2.3.3 or 2.4.0 ...
Something seems amiss.
By the way, I was surprised to see that the size of this new X11.bin is 6.5M compared to 3.4M. It has debug symbols in it.
