This book puts you in charge of the most flexible and adaptable
graphical interface in the computer industry. The X Window System
underlies graphical desktops on Linux and Unix systems, and supports
advanced features of modern graphics cards. More people use the X Window
System than ever before, but there are few books about X in print. X
Power Tools fills that hole with the most practical and up-to-date
information available. Written in O'Reilly's popular Power Tools format,
X Power Tools offers dozens of standalone articles, thoroughly
cross-referenced, on useful tools and techniques for using X. This
unique inside look at X gives Unix/Linux system administrators, owners
of self-administered systems, and power users a lot of useful ways to
harness the power of this system effectively. This book: Offers a
thorough grounding in X configuration and how the system works Provides
the complete ins and outs of changing a desktop's behavior, such as
fonts, keyboard settings, and remote security Includes articles on how
to take advantage of X's "network transparency" -- its ability to
display graphical applications on a remote machine Explores intriguing
areas such as using multiple monitors, building kiosks, and
accessibility Features discussions on X Window innovations and the
future of the system X Power Tools covers configuration and use of X,
focusing on Linux but also including notes on other operating systems
such as Solaris and FreeBSD. Each article in the book gives you insight
into X; the entire book gives you a real grasp on this system and what
you can do with it.
