  How do I disable tcp/6000 connections?

No-one else seems to have mentioned this, so I'll address it; pass the
server the options -nolisten tcp on the command line. 

thanks. hummm but it doesn't seem to work

This is how I'm invoking X, it's a djb daemontools (tcpserver) run script.

#!/bin/sh
exec 21
exec envuidgid user /usr/bin/X11/X  -ac -nosilk -br -allowMouseOpenFail \
-nolisten tcp 


It works great, even if I kill X it comes back up, but it still listens
on 6000.  I find this odd, maybe I need to invoke it with Xfree86, not X?

It's not a big deal; write-combining is a performance optimization available
on Pentium-II and beyond.  It's possible the MTRR has already been set up; what
do you get if you cat /proc/mtrr?

Does your kernel have support for MTRRs compiled in?

The kernel did have mtrr enabled, but cat proc/mtrr did not provide
all the nice info like in the docs.

I think it is incomplete development of the via source... I'm really
glad I got a buildable snapshot of xc! For my project the load has gone
from 90-115% to 50-85% so it's clear the cle266 is being utilized :-}

Hmm, that shouldn't make a difference. I've got -nolisten tcp working on
this machine with the 4.3.99.5 snapshot; it's getting called as

/usr/bin/nice -15 /X11/bin/X -nolisten tcp -logverbose 2 -wm vt02

and both nmap(1) and lsof(1) confirm that it's not listening on TCP. Perhaps
you could try moving the -nolisten tcp to the first two argument
positions?

When I restart X, I get the error:

Are you referencing the via module in the Module section of your
XF86Config file?  If so, that's the cause of this error.  It can
be fixed by removing the offending reference.
