Many thanks for the response. Much appreciated
Permissions look ok
ls -ld /tmp /tmp/.X11-unix
drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 Apr 17 09:31 /tmp
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Apr 17 09:31 /tmp/.X11-unix ->
/mnt/wslg/.X11-unix
ls -ld /mnt/wslg/.X11-unix
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 60 Apr 17 09:31 /mnt/wslg/.X11-unix
I have write access to both locations
Regards
Mark

errno 11 is EAGAIN, "Try again". How strange.
I would check the ownership and permissions and fullness of your /tmp
directory. Make sure everything looks all right.
Also see whether there's a /tmp/.X11-unix directory. Here's what I have:
unicorn:~$ ls -ld /tmp /tmp/.X11-unix
drwxrwxrwt 29 root root 73728 Apr 17 09:19 /tmp drwxrwxrwt 2 root root
4096 Mar 26 08:02 /tmp/.X11-unix
Note the world-writability with sticky bits.
