I Cannot Start the X Server

> I recently upgraded and ran into this problem as well.

> From ProcMon it looks like /tmp/.tX0-lock is being deleted

> Specifically, it is being opened with options: Synchronous IO
> Non-Alert, Non-Directory File, Delete On Close
>
> The file is then closed and re-opened and the re-open fails
> because it no longer exists.
