Sorry for the off topic post, but I am having X11 problems. Since upgrading to Tiger, and doing a bunch of other installs, my X11 is broken. I have reinstalled both the app and the sdk but with no change. No matter what I do, the X11 cannot connect to the localhost to display anything. Therefore none of my Fink apps work either.

The simplest example is the xhost command. On a compuer on the net, that works from my laptop, in response to the xhost i get:

xhost:  unable to open display "localhost:0"


I have looked at my /etc/hosts file and other stuff, and I am stumped. Any suggestions/help greatly appreciated.

Regards,

-Roy M.
