hmm, ok i found a configuration file for gdm which seems to have a relevant parameter :-

-bash-3.2# grep -i tcp /usr/share/gdm/defaults.conf
# If true this will basically append -nolisten tcp to every X command line, a
# a "-nolisten tcp", as then the query just wouldn't work, so this setting only
#DisallowTCP=true
# Note: Is your X server not listening to TCP requests?  Refer to the 
# security/DisallowTCP setting!

as per the header i took a copy of this file and placed it /etc/X11/gdm as custom.conf and tried forcing the DisallowTcp :-
-bash-3.2# grep -i tcp /etc/X11/gdm/custom.conf
# If true this will basically append -nolisten tcp to every X command line, a
# a "-nolisten tcp", as then the query just wouldn't work, so this setting only
#DisallowTCP=true
# Note: Is your X server not listening to TCP requests?  Refer to the 
# security/DisallowTCP setting!
DisallowTCP=false

this also has made no difference as after reboot my running Xorg process still has -nolisten tcp and i have no service listening on port 6000 and my x apps still get ünable to open display¨.. Sigh
