13I know this is rather common, but I am having issues. A definitive answer for this question would be helpful for many. Lots of examples around seem omit important details.Mr. Shickadance– Mr. Shickadance2011-05-06 17:41:19 +00:00Commented May 6, 2011 at 17:41

13One thing to be aware of when reading about X11 is that the terminology is a little weird. Usually the machine that we are sitting at is the client, and the server is the machine that is remote to us.But in the X world, that is flipped around. The machine we are sitting at is creating windows and drawing shapes at the request of the remote machine. So the remote machine making the requests to draw is the "Client", and the local machine that is servicing those requests is the "Server".Mike DeAngelo– Mike DeAngelo2019-12-28 22:28:26 +00:00Commented Dec 28, 2019 at 22:28

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
