X11 2.7.0
Released: 2011.11.04
This release contains xorg-server 1.11.2
Installation
Download XQuartz-2.7.0.dmg (SnowLeopard and Lion), and open it with Mac OSX's Installer.
Due to a bug in the package, it is not possible to trivially downgrade to 2.7.0. If you want to downgrade to 2.7.0, you should first delete (trash) /Applications/Utilities/XQuartz.app
Important Notices
OS-X Requirements
OS-X 10.6.3 or later is required to install this package.
Default X11 Server
If this is your first time installing XQuartz on Snow Leopard, you may wish to logout and log back in. This will update your DISPLAY environment variable to point to XQuartz.app rather than X11.app. If you would prefer to keep using X11.app as your default server (you can still launch XQuartz.app manually), you'll want to disable /Library/LaunchAgents/org.macosforge.xquartz.startx.plist using launchctl(1).
