I've just realized that the last time I reinstalled I forgot to hunt down and check the option to install X11.
Is there an easy way to install this, because I can't find it on the install disks?

do a search for invisible items on the install disks, it most likely has .pkg as an extension, so you can try limiting search to invisible and pkg, hopefully it says X11.pkg, rather than look at all the invisible files, there are many. |

do a find, in addition to name/extension, there is an option for visibility. |

I think you can just run the XCode installer again, and customize the install and only check X11. I recently had to do this same thing, and I didn't have to dig around looking for a specific .pkg installer. |

ndrake is correct.

Got it installed now. (I keep my mac disks well put away so I don't lose them.) Xcode won't install X11, and because X11 isn't installed the X11SDK is greyed out unselectable.
However, so that I have a reference for the next time I do this, if I have a finder window already open to the disk, a search for X11 gets both user & SDK pkgs and nothing else. Then 'software update' the 2006 security package.
