To check if an X server is running, type:
% ps auxg | grep X11
If there are entries for /Applications/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11 then an X
server is still running.
If not, this error probably means that /tmp/.X11-unix/X0 is left lying around
after a previous run. It's also possible that /tmp/.X0-lock is left lying
around. The latter file contains the process ID of the X server process, if
running.
Hugh.
