One "tutorial bug" that we found here is, when you run "gazenv-init.sh 
start", it must be pointed to the Xephyr's DISPLAY. If the Xephyr 
DISPLAY is :2, the script should be run as

DISPLAY=:2 gazenv-init.sh start

or put export DISPLAY=:2  in your .bashrc.  Without this, the keyboard 
will send keystrokes to Gazpacho.
