I have figured out what to do to resolve the
ICEauthority issue.
First make a directory called .xdgr in the home directory and give the
owner read, write and execute permissions. None to any other user.
in console
cd ~
mkdir .xdgr
chmod 0700 .xdgr
Second, tell the system that you want the XDG_RUNTIME_DIRECTORY to be in
that folder.
Add the following to /home/username/.profile
XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=~/.xdgr
My system is now back to normal and my applications are running great.
It took a long time to get there though.
