With wireless enabled, wired disabled, can not run X programs.
A0.2.4 32-bit, auto, vm or real hw.
This is weird, but consistent: If I connect wifi, then disable wired connection, I can not launch X apps. Trying to run them from a terminal, I get error:
No protocol specified
xterm: Xt error: can not open display 0:0
The second line varies depending on application, but always indicates unable to open display or connect to X server.
If I re-enable wired connection, then things return to normal.
Also, if I disconnect both wired and wireless, things work normally.

reporter Further testing: It does not matter if I disconnect eth0 using the network-manager-applet, or physically disconnect the network cable.
I removed packages NetworkManager and network-manager-applet, installed wicd. Problem goes away.
Removed wicd, re-installed NetworkManager and network-manager-applet. Problem returns.
-
reporter Edited /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf as suggested in IRC channel, un-commenting keyfile and hostname lines.
Rebooted, and problem has not asserted itself since.

A fix for this was pushed on commit 38aa08d. Further testing on future ISO builds will be required before closing the bug.

I was having similar issues. I reset my hostname via vhostname and everything has been fine since.
I also ripped the hostname out of the hosts file as well.
