How can I install x11 onto 10.6?

When I installed 10.6, I did a clean install, and reformatted my HD.

Now, I unticked all the boxes for the optional extras when I installed 10.6, meaning I don't have 3gb of printer drivers and also no x11...

It turns out I need x11 to run GIMP, so can I install x11 onto my 10.6 install or do I have to start from scratch?

I downloaded a file called "x11-2.4.0.dmg" which turned out to only install on 10.5, not 10.6.

Stick in the 10.6 dvd and you should be able to intall extras from it.

in the 'Optional Installs' folder, iirc.
