X runs fine on my G5 Dual Desktop, but stopped launching one day on my

it refers to '/tmp'.
I tried re-installing from the Tiger installation DVD, but that fixed
nothing. I am sure its a dependency somewhere, but assuming its a striped
binary, I would rather try something other than stepping through with GDB.
If you happen to use X on more than one user account, try running X on
the other user account, and then quitting X normally (i.e., not a
crash). If this is indeed the problem, doing the above should clear
things up, but you might need to repeat doing this a couple of times.
