I installed the X11 beta 0.3 on my home Mac.
I run OS X 10.2.4 on a 1.5 year old G4/867 desktop machine.
The previous X11 had been working extremely well for me.

Since last week, I've used the beta 0.3 with IDL for about 15-20 hours
now and I haven't had any problems at all. I opted to keep all of my
"configuration" files the same. (i.e. I didn't let the installer
overwrite my config files.) Occasionally the 0.2x version
would silently quit on me--poof--when it was in the background.
So far, that has not happened once with 0.3.

I run graphic-instesive applications with both direct graphics
and object graphics windows.

There's only one peculiarity I've found, and it's been around since
the first version of X11. If I have two graphics-only windows open,
and I try to move one of them with a click-and-drag, sometimes
the computer loses track of where I clicked. The mouse cursor ends up
one one side of the screen and the window on the other. They sill
move together, but far apart. Has anyone else seen this? It seems
to only happen WHILE a process is running. Not when everything is stopped.
