Section: Part II: General Linux Exam 102
Chapter 18. X (Topic 2.10) Unix has a long history of utility that predates the popular demand for a graphical user interface (GUI). However, a GUI is an essential part of running small systems today, and the standard GUI on Linux systems is the X Window System, or more simply, X. Originally developed at MIT and Digital Equipment Corporation, X's current release is Version 11 Release 6. This version is more commonly referred to as X11R6, or just X11. X is a complete windowing GUI and is distributable under license without cost. The implementation of X for Linux is XFree86 (http://www.xfree.org/), which is available for multiple computer architectures and is released under the GNU Public License. This section covers these four Objectives on XFree86 for LPI Exam 102: - Objective 1: Install and Configure XFree86
