Thanks, Grz,

But the file in your public folder is a file named "X11 copy", and according to this thread, that's not the actual file I need. The file that worked for Sigrid is file "User.pkg" which you placed in HIS public folder. Could you place the "User.pkg" in your public folder?

Thanks.
jim.

Jim,

you are right...

it's uploading now ...

I thought I left a copy in my public map ...

glad I could help...

Grz -

Thanks so much, but unfortunately, there was a problem - I don't know why, but during the installation process it reported that "there is an error."

You know - don't worry about it. It's not worth the time now to get it working, and I'll be home in a week where I have my installation DVD.

Thanks anyway -

Cheers,
jim..

Jim,

Try this one new X11 file in my public folder.

I copied it from my install DVD and he's a bit bigger (5,7mb) than the one I copied from my laptop(2,2mb) in my public folder.

Succes

The file that's in your public folder now is "X11SDK.pkg" which is different than the X11User.pkg file that I need. But hey, don't worry. I'll get it fixed in a week.

Thanks for trying -

Hi Jim and Frank,

the correct package should now be in my folder "sigridlj" and it is not password protected now.
And by the way, Sigrid is a GIRL:)

Thanks, Sigrid, for the files. The installation worked great.

Sorry for the gender mixup!

Sorry Jim,

I was a bit in a hurry and ... so I placed the wrong file

I'll replace it with right one tomorrow for any further needs ....

and Sigrid already helped you out...

Hi,

I'm in the same situation...out of the country and in need of the x11user.pkg for Tiger.
I was able to download the x11user.pkg from Sigrid's idisk, but it appears to be incomplete as it generates an error and does not install.
If someone could be so kind as to either post the correct version on their public iDisk or upload it to mine (idisk.mac.com/dazz3r-Public) that would be great.

Thanks for your help,

Darren

I think you might have downloaded the incorrect package from my folder. There was a couple of possibly incorrect ones in my folder.
The correct one is there now, and you could try to download it again. It seemed to have worked out fine for Jim.

Have a nice journey!

Sigrid,

Thank you for your response. I tried the reamining x11user.pkg that is on your idisk (thanks for cleaning out the old ones). Sadly it still does not work. It goes through the normal install steps (Note @ select destination step it indicates that it requires 90MB of space...from a 2MB .pkg?). I checked and I am not even getting an install receipt.
It appears that I am experiencing what you and Jim were experiencing with the incomplete .pkg. If you are able to upload the .pkj direct form the install CD/DVD that would be great.
After endless searching of the web, it surprises me that this is the only place I have found where it is available to download.

Thanks for your help,
Darren

Sigrid appears to have an iBook, so she presumably has a PPC version of X11.
Dazz appears to have a MacBook, which can not use the PPC version.

So then there is nothing I can do to help you Darren, I'm sorry. I don't know what a PPC version means, but maybe it could be worth the effort to try the package called X11user1.pkg in my folder, which is much bigger than X11user.pkg.

Hope it works out, I know how annoying this problem can be.

Good luck
Sigrid

Ahh, the PPC/Intel detail, I didn't think of that. Would have been much simpler to remember to bring my install DVD before I traipsed halfway around the globe 😉
If anyone else is reading, let's get a download point for tiger & intel macbook & x11 set up. Searching the web has proven that there is a need for it. If I was back in the world I would upload it right away.

Thank you, Sigrid for your help. Thank you to all others who can help...
