Another point being missed, is that if the hostname gets changed the moment an external IP interface is brought up, X becomes unusable because suddenly the magic cookie isn't found (the server and .Xauthority think it's "localhost" and the client thinks it's "some-dynamic-ip-xx-yy-zz.imaginative-dsl-provider.com"). So adding it to /etc/hosts as 127.0.0.1 (or, as I do, 127.0.0.x where x > 1) helps a lot(!) -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
