Re: [Fink-beginners] X11

[Alexander H. <ha...@ld...>]

This is a classic problem, and the solution is at:

http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/x11/inst-xfree86.php#apple-binary , in 
the section "Some notes on using Apple's X11"

Basically, X11 doesn't care that you have Fink installed, so you have 
to make it use your Fink stuff.
