I am connecting via ssh and getting this:
Code:
X Error: BadIDChoice (invalid resource ID chosen for this connection) 14

I am able to launch firefox through the same ssh session, and I have historically been able to launch bitcoin-qt this way on this particular pair of machines.  The only change I have made is adding a bitcoin.conf to the .bitcoin folder in ~ (home).  I stopped bitcoin-qt before doing that and started bitcoind after.  I then wanted to see if bitcoin-qt would perform / start the daemon functions, so I launched it and got this error.  The bitcoin.conf looks like this:
Code:
rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=pass
rpcport=8337
rpcallowip=*
daemon=1
server=1
However, stopping bitcoind, renaming bitcoin.conf, and starting bitcoin-qt leads to an exception as well.  Is there anything else I should try, or am I likely to find that this problem goes away when I restart the machine (or ssh connection)?
