Trying to upgrade my XFree installation, I of course messed things up
instead:

21:08 ~> startx
xauth: (argv):1:  bad display name "messiah.megadeb.org:0" in "list"
command
xauth: (argv):1:  bad display name "messiah.megadeb.org:0" in "add"
command
_XSERVTransSocketUNIXCreateListener: ...SocketCreateListener() failed
_XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: server already running
Fatal server error:
Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't
already run
ning

...anyone have an idea of what I can do here? I'd *really* like to get
my X back...and also if someone could explain to me the 'bad display
name' part, that'd be great.

Don't fix it if it ain't broke. Please cc me in the reply.
