Hello,
I think DISPLAY is getting a weird value on my system here.
We've completely rebooted, and this is still occurring on my system with any of the 2.6.1-2.6.2 incarnations of Xquartz. (IIRC this didn't happen with 2.6.0 and earlier.) Presently I have the beta1 of 2.6.2 installed and trying to get it started-up here. (Yes I did re-run the installer for 2.6.2_beta1 after the 10.6.7/etc system updates.)
The user's env-var matches what launchctl returns:
$ launchctl getenv DISPLAY /tmp/launch-s9kPWX/org.x:0
You should have /Library/LaunchAgents/org.macosforge.xquartz.startx.plist
What is the output of "launchctl list org.macosforge.xquartz.startx"
$ launchctl list org.macosforge.xquartz.startx { "Label" = "org.macosforge.xquartz.startx"; "LimitLoadToSessionType" = "Background"; "OnDemand" = true; "LastExitStatus" = 0; "TimeOut" = 30; "ProgramArguments" = ( "/opt/X11/bin/startx"; ); "EnableTransactions" = true; "TransactionCount" = -1; "Sockets" = { "org.macosforge.xquartz:0" = ( file-descriptor-object; ); }; };

(There is no critter named /tmp/.X11-unix (shown via ls -al) presently on my system. The /tmp dir itself does have root:wheel ownership with "drwxrwxrwt" flags.)
It should be created by /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macosforge.xquartz.privileged_startx.plist
What is the output of "sudo launchctl list org.macosforge.xquartz.privileged_startx"
$ sudo launchctl list org.macosforge.xquartz.privileged_startx Password: { "Label" = "org.macosforge.xquartz.privileged_startx"; "LimitLoadToSessionType" = "System"; "OnDemand" = true; "LastExitStatus" = 0; "TimeOut" = 120; "ProgramArguments" = ( "/opt/X11/lib/X11/xinit/privileged_startx"; "-d"; "/opt/X11/lib/X11/xinit/privileged_startx.d"; ); "EnableTransactions" = true; "TransactionCount" = -1; "MachServices" = { "org.macosforge.xquartz.privileged_startx" = mach-port-object; }; };

During these lists, none of the X (sub)tasks are running now. BTW I dug a bit and found: $ ls -al /tmp/launch-34Cqdu total 0 drwx------ 2 scifi wheel 102 Apr 24 10:25 . drwxrwxrwt 11 root wheel 544 Apr 24 11:56 .. srwx------ 1 scifi wheel 0 Apr 24 10:25 org.macosforge.xquartz:0 so _something_ was trying to work right. But the timestamps might tell something -- the "wrong" one might've been created during when we rebooted, 19-minutes earlier: $ ls -al /tmp/launch-s9kPWX total 0 drwx------ 2 scifi wheel 102 Apr 24 10:06 . drwxrwxrwt 11 root wheel 544 Apr 24 11:56 .. srwx------ 1 scifi wheel 0 Apr 24 10:06 org.x:0 Another BTW -- I don't have anything like ~/.x* critters either, nor in /etc . ;) Thanks again.
