 Xserver with:
 
        /usr/X11R6/bin/X -fp tcp/localhost:7100

+For example, the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers would look like:

+  # xdm will have a tougher time managing them.

+  # Each line should look like:
+  #
+  #       XterminalName:0 foreign
+  :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -fp tcp/localhost:7100

 A similar change is required for xinit/startx.  NB: Some users report
