Thanks to everyone who emailed back.  The issue was with both my ipv4 and dcpcd 
files in /etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ under my network card being set to 
startup=yes.  I just had to disable the static ip file (ipv4) in order to get 
my dhcpd working correctly and startx to resume proper operation.  I guess xorg 
does have some interfacing feature with these files, because console apps ran 
fine even before the problem was fixed.

Open source support rocks...Thanks a lot guys!

I think XOrg is the clue.  Have you added IPv6 addresses to /etc/hosts?
Something like:
# add myself to the known network hosts
192.168.1.110   panda.lan       panda
# IPv6 version
::FF:192.168.1.110      panda.lan       panda
