Description Raaf 2005-11-13 04:20:14 UTC 
In gnome 2.12 the services-admin utility mounts another memory filesystem
on /tmp which will hide any previous files in /tmp. Since xorg also puts
it's socket in /tmp launching any new x-application will fail.

Fix: 

Sorry no fix, but the bug appears to be in one of the perl scripts in
sysutils/system-tool-backends
How-To-Repeat: Make sure you have tmpmfs="YES" in /etc/rc.conf then from the gnome 2.12
menu choose Desktop->Administration->Services or fom the commandline start
services-admin.
