In looking at this again, it is symptomatically similar to what I've
observed on RHEL 6, which was due to the X security extension not being
available.  Can you verify whether that extension exists in your
installation of SLES 11?  It exists in my installation of SuSE 11, so
I'm not sure why they would be different, but maybe they disabled it in
an update that I haven't installed yet.
