Again, I just wanted you to know that this has been going through my head for the past couple weeks. I finally was told something that I needed to learn to get past my first learning hurtle.Originally Posted by gowator
As I was reading this it seemed like a audible "ping" went off in my head.
For the first time I got what it means to have an X-server! It had always confused me. I didn't get what its purpose was. (My thinking was, "Why didn't it just get glued to the kernal"?) Now it makes sense:
Linux = Unix clone,
Unix was created to be used as a large mainframe computer,
Terminals are used to connect to the big mainframe computer,
The X-"sever" is used to hand out a GUI to the terminals!!!!!!! Yah!!!
Beyond that there was other things that would just come to me during the past week or two, as I was mulling over your words.
You have given me a spark to want to learn again.
Thank-you agian, obi-wan.
