I saw something similar about half a year ago on my Sid box. If I ever
rebooted, I'd have to change perms on a hidden directory in /tmp to root
ownership. I'm not sure which one, but I think it was either:
drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 1024 2006-08-15 10:14 .ICE-unix
or
drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 1024 2006-08-15 10:14 .X11-unix
