HOLDDOWN, no response from nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn: temporarily disabling default route thru gateway nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn

Severity:
Information
Explanation:
The X server is no longer trying to route packets to the specified default gateway. This may be because of network problems or because of problems on the gateway.

When the X server verifies via ping that the gateway machine nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn is operating, it again routes packets there.
