What about X10? ;-) The best questions would actually be "What about X2, X3, X4, X5, X7, X8 ?" :-P As for the .Xresources, it as always been a file to load explicitely. It just happens that some default configurations load it by default: Code: $ grep userresources /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc This, of course, is up to the distro maintainers ;-) What bother me with X11 though, is that it is designed to be a network protocol, yet you never see it in the wild (besides perhaps X11 forwarding over ssh). X being a "network protocol" should allow awesome stuff like what you get on plan9, where your whole system is spread on multiple machines. Why don't we have people providing "graphics as a service" or similar? Why do we have to use stuff like X11VNC or ffserver? Is it a lack of knowledge? Did X11 failed at being what it is? |
