It's ok. > _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errorno = 61 intro(2) says that error 61 is ECONNREFUSED, aka `Connection refused'. Are you running ipfw? Do you have it set to allow X connections? By default, all network communications are blocked. If you aren't ready to set up rules yet, edit /etc/rc.conf and set the firewall policy to "open". Then reboot and try it. I wish the X server would use strerror(3) to translate the number to the standard string. People usually understand the string better than the number.
