Are you, by any chance, running tmpwatch ? I have seen this kind of thing happening on other distros. tmpwatch would remove files from /tmp related to X11 autentication, so the application would start, but X11 would not allow it to open.
Then either tmpwatch *or* X authentification would be really broken. hier(7) says explicitly that no application should expect files in /tmp to stay. And authentification cookies should be put into the users directory,
Doesn't that present problems with NFS?
