Xorg error 104 caused by security precaution

[Jude DaShiell]

When I installed this box, one of the services I turned off in an effort 
to improve security (philosophy being if the service isn't needed don't 
run it) was xfs.  When I turned xfs back on then rebooted and ran startx 
for the first time it generated an error because it couldn't contact the 
gnome configuration server.  So I closed startx down and tried again and 
that error went away.  The reason telinit 5 worked is that doing telinit 5 
starts up xfs as part of its normal operation and I remember that was one 
of the services I had turned off so put 2 and 2 together and got this box 
working farther than had ever been the cae before.
