MonoDevelop on OSX - HELP

I downloaded the OSX installer from http://mirrors.d
otsrc.org/devlibosx/

I ran the installer and when I try to launch MonoDevelop it
crashes.

When I launch from the command line I get the following
error:

/Applications/MonoDevelop.app/Contents/Resources/script:
line 3: open- 
x11: command not found


Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do to resolve this?

Thanks,
    Mike

Mike,
I actually just got to responding to your email submitted
via my blog,
however disregard that one... As this one contains more
information.

Your problem is likely simple, You never installed X11. X11
is installed
as part of your operating systems install, under the custom
button...
Apple only means it for part of academia; not as something
for
everyone... In any case you will need to do this and in this
specific
order.

1. Locate and install the X11 package from your Tiger
install disc.
Located in /System/Installation/Packages on Disc Tiger
install 1 (Or
factory restore Disc 1).

2. Run Software Update and run the update for X11.

3. Reboot.

4. Re-run the MonoDevelop Installer. This is needed because
X11 has to
be patched (fontconfig that comes with OS X is screwy).

5. Try MonoDevelop.

Remember these packages are PPC-ONLY. If you have an Intel
Mac they will
not work. Id continue development but do not currently have
a Macintosh
at all; a real issue if you're trying to develop something
on an OS that
requires specific hardware huh?

Make sure X11.app is installed from your Mac OS X Tiger Installation DVD
