OK that last one was different because I forgot to copy /etc/hosts
into the chroot, with that it gives the same message as for :14 :
chrisxpra at novo:~$ xmessage hello
No protocol specified
Error: Can't open display: novo:14

ps. I do see Xvfb listen:
tcp                  * 6014                 8656 Xvfb-for-Xpra-:14 :14
-auth /home/chrisxpra/.Xauthority +extension Composite -screen 0
3840x1920x24+32 -once

Oh, that's it probably, my subsequent chrootlogin overwrites the
.Xauthority file.

Christian.
