Jul 12, 2012 at 9:41 comment added Rhys Davies Thank-you for your answer, Karl. It has at least helped me to clarify my problem, but I'm not quite there yet! "...every divisor through $x$ on $X$ is going to be linearly equivalent to a divisor not passing through $x$" is exactly what I meant. I'm afraid I can't see why that is equivalent to factoriality though (sorry if I'm being dense; I'm a little out of my depth here). If $x$ is the only singular point, doesn't factoriality depend only on $\mathcal{O}_{X,x}$? I think I have examples of the same singularity in different threefolds, once with the conditions satisfied, and once not.
