This seems to do it.  Shouldn't the configuration program have done this when 
it asked about starting xfs?

The mouse continues to work, and top shows xfs taking bursts of cycles.  ps x 
shows
 973  ?  S      2:59 
/usr/X11R6/bin/X -auth /var/lib/xdm/authdir/authfiles/A:0-a00971 

should I be bothered that this doesn't include a reference to port 7100? (i 
recall that macbsd did, but i had to start x manually with the explicit 
reference.
