Errors while trying to start xserver(xvesa, xnvidia, etc)

[Alok Bhatt]

same problem here too.
even checking out 3 weeks ago or 4 weeks ago doesn't make a difference. it 
still can't establish a listening socket
if i try -ac -nolisten tcp then the error is

_XSERVTransTransNoListen: unable to find transport: tcp

Fatal server error:
Failed to disable listen for tcp

which xtrans is currently working?
