Comment (by agtebo@…):

 This is the FAQ to which I am referring:
 http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki/X11-UsersFAQ

 According to the xinit portfile to select the Macports port as the
 default, I need to log out and then back in after installing it and
 loading the LaunchAgent. I did that, and nothing changed with my
 DISPLAY.If I deactivate the macosforge LaunchAgent it won't unload
 completely. If I load MacPorts, it says it's loaded but doesn't change the
 DISPLAY. Same with x.org as well (this is after logging out and back in).
 I've removed their version from my computer, so I don't know how their
 LaunchAgent keeps superseding the ones I try to load.

 Is there any way to see why Macports is not being installed as the
 default?
 Many thanks.
