I tried the above fix and ran a VM with the attached config (the custom
kernel stuff was to try something else at the same time). It fixes the
error about the directory, but it would still fail at X11 forwarding
(there was an error message: "Can't find any xauth information for X11
display").
I ended up figuring out it needed libxau to work; combined with your
patch, this fixes X11 forwarding.
Fixed in commit 0ec195ff02.
For the record, I've done the tests in a VM using the attached system
config. The custom kernel stuff is unrelated.
Thanks,
Closing,
Maxim
