 I just installed xorg (sudo port install xorg), and therefore also
 received xorg-apps and xorg-server. No errors occurred during
 installation. Whenever I try to run the xterm (eg. "xterm" or "gnuplot >
 set term x11" ) the new x11 from macports opens and closes in an infinite
 loop. This cannot be stopped in the activity monitor or through killing a
 process. Also, the computer will refuse to shutdown or restart. The only
 way to stop this loop is remove
 /opt/local/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc
 This will then cause  fatal error in the x11 the next time it starts up
 and no more restart. However, it renders xorg useless.
