Description
After installing 2.7.0 beta2, XQuartz is no longer the default x server. Instead the native x11 become the default.
I have restarted my computer after the installation. I have tried both the automatic update and a downloaded *.dmg.
The 2.7.0 beta1 installer works as expected, and reinstalling beta1 restores XQuartz as the default x server.

Yeah, there was a permissions problem. Do:
sudo chmod 644 /Library/Launch*/*xquartz*
Then reboot.

Same here: 2.7.0_beta2 is installed, but isn't used by X applications.
