Help with Gimp & X11

I have a MacBook, 2,1 OS X 10.4.11 with all the software updates.

When I try to install X11 it says "cannot download as newer version installed".
I have downloaded Gimp, dragged it over to "Applications" and the installation asks for X11 "where is X11?" and I cannot find it!

What do I have to do?

Many thanks for any advise:-)

You need to install X11 from your installation CDs. The one available online is for Panther, IIRC.
