Great, I scrolled down the window without running anything and found
"optional installs" somewhere below and that did the trick! 

You guessed right, I was running the installer and hoping at some point
I'd be offered a choice to install just one package (x11).

It was. When I couldn't install from dvd installer, I tried apple's web
site and got that package.

So, thanks again, the problem is solved.
