Install X11 from your apple install disks. That should solve the problem.

No, as long as you only install X11 and don't accidentally reinstall the OS.

Just put the OSX install Disk 1 in, and use spotlight to find an X11 package, and install it...

I really don't know why its not included in the regular install...
