Congrats on producing a super stable XServer. One issue I have found is that on
a multi network interface machine, for example a machine with an Ethernet Card
and Bluetooth, the server can attach itself to the wrong interface. I assume
the server just picks the first network interface that is not loopback?
However, I can't see an option to force it to use a particular interface?
