Please don't use hostname for local connections and use "-nolisten tcp"
in the Xephyr invocation (you don't usually want to open extra holes to
network and using unix socket for X communication for instead of inet
one is faster & what happens on the target device).

I think D-BUS socket is fixed one in Maemo.  You might be able to make
it to use display or user name in the startup scripts.
