Possibly nothing. Check the ownership and permissions of your home
directory. "username") should own it and have rwx permissions:
[rick@prophead ~]$ ls -ld ~rick
drwx------ 102 rick rick 12288 Oct 10 18:30 /home/rick
If not, as root, change the permissions and delete the
~username/.ICEauthority file:
sudo chown username ~/username
sudo chmod u+rwx ~/username
sudo rm -f ~/username/.ICEauthority
Then log out. When you log in again as username, the file should be
recreated. This has been reported on Ubuntu and several other distros
and whatever caused it may have crept into Fedora somehow.
It appears to be something from an upstream package that Fedora also
uses.
