That's correct! Without an X(11 Window System) server already running
and/or an unset environment variable DISPLAY the X(11 Window System)
client xdvi won't appear ...

You need to launch X11 first (as mentioned).

This is something auxiliary: no X11 Window Manager is running here.
I can offer again to send you my application that "patches" some

and log in again and launch X11 the interplay of Carbon or Cocoa
applications and X11 will be perfect – at least no-one reported a
problem yet!
