This one has me stumped. I frequently update gentoo (pretty much daily) to always have the newest packages. I have both X.org X11 server and I keep a copy of the FreeDesktop Xserver laying around as well. I am running the newest version of X.org (6.7.0) from the gentoo ebuild and I haven't upgraded or recompiled either of my xservers in some time. I noticed yesterday that I couldn't start up new programs anymore. It started with the gimp and then I realized it was any program that didn't run through kdeinit that wouldn't start. I wanted to test stuff out so I logged out and restarted X with kdm. Only it didn't start, I get a bunch of _X11TransOpen: Unable to find transport for local. I also can no long start fdo's Xserver which fails with similar errors. So I can only assume something I have emerge recently screwed up tcp networking somehow. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Have you upgraded your libX11 from freedesktop.org lately? It's broken.
Or did I mean xtrans? Anyhow, one of those.
Ya, your right, it is definitly broken.. once I removed /opt/fdo/lib from the ld.so.conf it all worked again.
