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.
