Bug Description
BeagleXm, alpha2, alip 20110202
On startup, dialog appears that says:
Could not look up internet address for localhost.
This will prevent Xfce from operating correctly.
It may be possible to correct the problem yadda yadda to /etc/hosts

This also happens with the Versatile Express. Adding localhost. localdomain to /etc/hosts does in fact fix the problem.
