After installing gnome-control-center (still confused as to why that
was not done as a dependency of other packages like Evolution) I
cannot launch gnome-settings-daemon.  If I issue:
'/usr/pkg/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon start' from a console, I get
an error stating 'Xlib: connection to ":0:0" refused by server' and
'Xlib: No protocol specified'
