[NBLUG/talk] Cannot get XWindows to start

[Mark Street]

Hmmm, try a start

service xfs start

The font server creates its socket in /tmp/.font-unix/fs7100

If the permissions are not correct on /tmp xfs cannot create the file.  ... 
thus the error message.

The old /tmp files are of no use really.....
