This is a configuration problem, not an X problem.

It's ok.

intro(2) says that error 61 is ECONNREFUSED, aka `Connection refused'. 
Are you running ipfw?  Do you have it set to allow X connections?  By
default, all network communications are blocked.  If you aren't ready to
set up rules yet, edit /etc/rc.conf and set the firewall policy to "open". 
Then reboot and try it. 

I wish the X server would use strerror(3) to translate the number to the
standard string.  People usually understand the string better than the
number.
