It sounds like the server is running on the Retina, but you can't see it.
If you aren't able to navigate the cursor into the xterm and type ^D,
you can zap it out of existence with CTRL-ALT-Backspace.

If you want to run mono, run the server with the -mono option
("xinit -- -mono").  The -mono switch should be mentioned in the man
page.  I put a mono-only server on ftp.uni-regensburg.de earlier today,
so you can try that.

It's a bit confusing that it has this behavior, but it's fallout from
starting from the Xsun code, I guess.
