i am not clear which apps you are talkling about. But if you want the x11 terminal you can install x11sdk pkg. its located in installers in the finder. And then there is a x11 downlaod on apple website. Those were the only 2 things i needed. i use x11 window to remote login in a linux machine at work.
hope it helps

Yes, use fink - it's been updated for Panther for quite some time.
As far as adding it to the X11 menu: there's a "customize" option in the menu (at least in Panther). That'll do the trick.
