Thanks, James. I tried DisallowTCP=false in /etc/gdm/custom.conf but it 
does not help. ps -ef alsways shows Xorg is called with the parameter 
-nolisten tcp.

Then I found this thread 
http://www.nabble.com/FC9-DisallowTCP-td16987965.html
saying that DisallowTCP is not supported at this moment ( 04/2008 ).

I still can use ssh -X, anyway.

Thanks,
Vu
