I can't get it to work. I have X11 installed. There's no easy way to get help from the developer.

X11 vs. Aqua builds - rmcintosh

I don't see why people bother with an X11 build when there is a decent Aqua build out there now, even though Aqua releases lag behind X11. On that note, why don't OO developers primarily focus efforts on the Aqua builds now? It would be nice too if OO would make it cleaR which build we're getting on their download page and here on VT. First and formost I don't want to sound like a nag about OO: it is awesome. Keep up the great work!

X11 vs. Aqua builds - shaunmcdonald131

The problem is that the developers are spending their time on the aqua version, and don't use the X11 version anymore. This means that giving help on the X11 version has become a low priority for the voluntary team of developers.

Frustrating - rob.010

It looks as if it is Intel Mac and Core2Duo only which means 64bit intel macs.

The specs say 10.4 Intel & 10.5 Inte and latest java update which was java 6 update 1 for 64 bit intel macs.
