Bootcamp only works on real macs, not sure why X11 isn't working for you. Try installing it again.
I have the same problem with X11. During installation customization, I checked X11 option, and the installation went smoothly and the system ran right after reboot. But when I tried X11, looks like nothing happened, although when I open the Console to see the log, it does go thought some procedures about X11. I don't have any error message though.
I will try to reinstall X11. One question: what should I do to reinstall X11? Should I run the installation dvd in Leopard? or should I boot using dvd and reinstall the whole system?
Thanks for any help.
Maybe this would be worth considering?

After installing XQuartz, Gimp still quit unexpectedly for me and so is unusable.
BootCamp is incompatible with the AMD Architecture, for now,
Zeph> Yeah, but other things such as matlab, xfig, and macports seem to work so it's a halfway decent solution...?
