do you have localhost for ipv6/inet6 in /etc/hosts?

# cat /etc/hosts
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6

Note the last line... ::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6... that
helps identify your computer. I often copy my hosts file from machine to
machine and machines that have only ipv4 addresses...this can be a
problem.

...would I do the same thing for iam.wayward4now.net in hosts? Or, is
just localhost sufficient?

Just so you know, I also have ur., ru. and ima. on my other localnet
machine domainnames. <chuckles> Ric

on fixed ip address systems, I don't put any other hostnames in the
127.0.0.1 or ::1 address lines at all (other than what is shown above).

But that may actually mean that if you want X stuff to work on ipv6, you
probably have to execute a command like 'xhost +localhost6'

I think I may have found one of the major problems using xset -q which
gives me this:
root@iam ~]# xset -q

I find that note about Font cache disturbing or should I be disturbed?
Know of a remedy? Still looking for "could not open default font
'fixed'" solution. I'm googling like a wild man to find it! :) Ric

xset -q seems pretty normal to me (considering that you don't show font
paths for any user sessions).

could not open default font "fixed" sounds like a problem that occurs
because Fedora moved the X11 font paths a few distributions ago and I
think I fixed that with a symbolic link. I can't tell you where because
my desktop at work is currently turned off and I can't check it but I
think it was something like making a symbolic link...

ln -s /usr/share/X11/fonts /usr/X11R6/lib/X11
