nanogui: Thread: "Cannot bind to named socket" error in nano-X server

Hi all,

I get a "Cannot bind to named socket" from the nano-X server.

	Microwindows version: 8.9pre7
	OS: native Linux (RedHat 7.1)
	Config: config.X11

The compilation went smoothly, but only some of the demos run (mdemo, mtest, 
malpha, etc). What can be the problem?


Thanks,
Ariel

Man, this really needs to get into the FAQ

rm /tmp/.nano-X

nano-X uses unix domain sockets, and if this file gets left around, and
you don't have the permissions to delete it, or there is still a nano-X
server running, you're in trouble.

I have a small patch i wrote to allow several developers to run nano-X
on the same machine if anyone is interested...
