Hi. Today I upgraded to Mountain Lion. I currently have Crossover 10. When I ran the application, it said I need to install X11.
So, I'm wondering: should I find and install X11? Or do I need to upgrade to Crossover 11?
Thanks.

You'll need to upgrade to CrossOver 11.2 which supports Mountain Lion.
Post crossing in the night. Looks like from the post above it means Crossover 11. But in case...
I'm betting that means the X11 windowing utilities for the Mac and not Crossover 11.
At least in the past, X11 was in the Mac extras section.
I found this on X11 in Mountain Lion: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5293
"X11 is not included with Mountain Lion, but X11 server and client libraries for OS X Mountain Lion are available from the XQuartz project: http://xquartz.macosforge.org. You should use XQuartz version 2.7.2 or later."
"Additional Information"
"Apple created the XQuartz project as a community effort to further develop and support X11 on OS X. The XQuartz project was originally based on the version of X11 included in Mac OS X v10.5, and there have been multiple releases with fixes, support for new OS X features, and additional refinements to the X11 experience. Many of these enhancements were included in X11 for Mac OS X v10.6 and OS X Lion. Apple is a contributor to the XQuartz project and has worked to ensure that X11 works as expected in OS X Mountain Lion with XQuartz 2.7.2 or later."
