X11 no longer working

[Christoph Kukulies]

Here is the output. Nothing happens on the macOS side. I remembered that X11 (Quartz) popped up automatically iin the dock and the xclock appeared on the Mac desktop, last time it worked.

The X11DisplayOffset seems to be 10, although the line in sshd_config is commented out. 10 seems to be the default. But it used to work the day before yesterday. Don’t know what happened unless I had done something to the PATH or macports tree.

What I did was remove the X11 icon from the dock, but that after it stopped working. It is so that X11 Quartz normally launches automatically when a client requests an X11 connection, right?

Still clueless. Maybe I’m overlooking something very obvious?
