I installed the bash update (the 4.3.28-10.4 version) and everything seemed to be working well until I tried to open X11. When clicked, the X11 icon bounced as if it were opening, but nothing ever came up. I'm figuring that there is a compatibility problem somewhere and was wondering if anyone had encountered this issue before. I'm running Snow Leopard (10.6.8). Thanks.

    10.5 causing lots of forking of bash, system will freeze. Open Console & Activity Monitor & launch X11.
