The nano-X FAQ states:
-------
One thing that will cause this error is the inability to create (or delete) the named socket "/tmp/.nano-X". You may have problems with this if one user creates the socket and then nano-X subsequently crashes if you try to run nano-X from another userid you will get this error.
Delete the named socket "/tmp/.nano-X" if it exists, otherwise verify that the userid that is attempting to run nano-X has write permissions to the /tmp directory.
-------
Also, you may look at your configuration file and see if your keyboard and mouse are properly configured and the proper devices are available.
You need to get nano-X working first.

It is not a silly question: it's a perfectly reasonable one.
Here is the demo2.sh script:
bin/nano-X & bin/nanowm & bin/nxterm & bin/nxeyes & bin/tux & sleep 10000
So, as you can see nano-X is the first command invoked by the script.
It returns this if launched from a cli:
$> bin/nano-X
Cannot bind to named socket
So it fails immediately.
How can I proceed further?
