I have system which dual boots amd32 and amd64.

I have most of the same software installed in both environments.

Under amd32 everything is fine but in amd64 I get "xhost:  bad hostname "localh
ost" and similar messages relating to localhost
Gemini-64 (Client)      Mon Apr  7 17:10:04 2008
        INET/INET_connect: gethostbyname (localhost) failed, error code = 1


My hosts file looks like:
127.0.0.1       localhost
127.0.0.1       Gemini-64


which is similar to the amd32 version.

What am I missing?
