X11 no longer working

Today is a havoc day. I changed my login shell to bash. Also added this BASH Silencing variable succesfully.
Was playing around for hours with my FreeBSD system in the network and in the morning I ran some X clients.
Alway saw the X11 Quartz icon in the dock. 

Is it correct, the X server starts automatically if an X cient wants to connect over the network, right.
Last thing I did was to remove the X11 icon from the dock. Now suddenly when I ssh -Y to the FreeBSD system, start xclock there,
nothing happens. The xclock command line hangs on the client side. But no message at all. DISPLAY is localhost:10.0.

I did a reboot of the FreeBSD system already to no avail. What’s going on? Will reboot my Mac and next thing I’ll do is revert to zsh to see whether it has got to do with that.
