    Good idea. I know X seems to leave a lot of dot files in /tmp. Also, now that
    you mention it, I have had X fail to start when I have been playing multiple
    X sessions on a single box, and it left lock files that needed to be removed
    to use that screen#. May not be relatede but it's certainly work cleaning out
    the tmp files.
