Gnome didn't start for me this morning after an xorg upgrade, I had
the following in my .xsession-errors:
_IceTransmkdir: ERROR: euid != 0,directory /tmp/.ICE-unix will not be created.
_IceTransSocketUNIXCreateListener: mkdir(/tmp/.ICE-unix) failed, errno = 2
_IceTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to create listener for local
** (gnome-session:1016): WARNING **: Cannot establish any listening sockets
I traced this to /tmp being cleared, and .ICE-unix being cleared with
it. Apparenty it has to be in .tmp just so:
drwxrwxrwt 2 root wheel 512 Dec 23 12:51 .ICE-unix
