I have been using x11 for 2 years and the thing just won't connect for the last 2 or 3 weeks. Basically it looks like my local mac is not allowing the display to be taken over by x11. here is the error message:

*ERROR* X Window Display Initialization failure
*WARNING* X Window Display Initialization failure

I do xhost + which should open it up but it is not working. I am doing this on VPN but I tried bringing in a laptop to work and had the same problem over the LAN. We have ruled out a router issue as a PC can run X on the same network with hummingbird exceed.

Can anyone walk me through troubleshooting this? I have re-installed the X11 software and still no results.

My info:

Powermac G5 OS 10.4.3

From console.log:
