On Linux (in recent versions), Xorg listens on both a Unix domain socket on the filesystem (
/tmp/.X11-unix/X
) and in the _abstract_ domain (shown as @/tmp/.X11-unix/X
in netstat output).
It also listens on TCP (port 6000 +
).
One can stop it from listening on TCP by adding a -nolisten tcp
, but how can we tell it not to listen on the abstract namespace?
