Niner,

My guess would be that your AquaTerm software is not completely installed. This is an alternative to X11 that is used on a Mac. I would go to the AquaTerm website at 

  http://aquaterm.sourceforge.net/

and get the latest .dmg installer (version 1.0.1) and install it. That should fix your problems by installing the aquaterm .dylib files correctly on your system. 

Otherwise, you can install X11 and use that interface, if you prefer.
