Unlike most earlier display protocols, X was specifically designed to be used over network connections rather than on an integral or attached display device. X features network transparency, which means an X program running on a computer somewhere on a network (such as the Internet) can display its user interface on an X server running on some other computer on the network. The X server is typically the provider of graphics resources and keyboard/mouse events to X clients, meaning that the X server is usually running on the computer in front of a human user, while the X client applications run anywhere on the network and communicate with the user's computer to request the rendering of graphics content and receive events from input devices including keyboards and mice. Linda Mui and Eric Pearce, X Window System Volume 8: X Window System Administrator's Guide for X11 Release 4 and Release 5, 3rd edition (O'Reilly and Associates, July 1993; softcover ISBN 0-937175-83-8) X's network protocol is based on X command primitives. This approach allows both 2D and (through extensions like GLX) 3D operations by an X client application which might be running on a different computer to still be fully accelerated on the X server's display. For example, in classic OpenGL (before version 3.0), display lists containing large numbers of objects could be constructed and stored entirely in the X server by a remote X client program, and each then rendered by sending a single glCallList(which) across the network.

The Orca project adds accessibility support to the X Window System, including implementing an API ( AT-SPI [7]). This is coupled with GNOME's ATK to allow for accessibility features to be implemented in X programs using the GNOME/GTK APIs. [8] KDE provides a different set of accessibility software, including a text-to-speech converter and a screen magnifier. [9] The other major desktops (LXDE, Xfce and Enlightenment) attempt to be compatible with ATK.Azure 4" (131, 139, 139) is close to "Azure" (240, 255, 255) values transformed as 255 × 0.548 = 139.74 and 240 × 0.548 = 131.52. request a local display/input service (e.g., export DISPLAY= [user's machine]:0 if not using SSH with X forwarding enabled)

These shades are not included in W3C specifications, although drafts for level 4 of the CSS Color module include a similar function gray(). The Foundation takes an oversight role over X development: technical decisions are made on their merits by achieving rough consensus among community members. Technical decisions are not made by the board of directors; in this sense, it is strongly modelled on the technically non-interventionist GNOME Foundation. The Foundation employs no developers. First freely redistributable X release. Earlier releases required a BSD source license to cover code changes to init/getty to support login. uwm made standard window manager. I would personally aim for: no (note: I don't have the authority on this). If you need X11, stay with the previous version of Fedora and likely the next one will have support for all your needs.Uncomment – or add – the following lines (these items allow you to forward the traffic to your computer from the host): Here's the deal, though. Neither @marcdeop, nor @tdawson, nor myself want to wind up having to commit to maintaining the Xorg server in any shape or form. We've already mostly eliminated X11 from the KDE Plasma hot-path now mostly so we can avoid that scenario. Xorg releases are already a struggle upstream, and dealing with Xorg CVEs is tough work.
