History of the X Windows System
Windowing history for modern computer
systems goes back into the 1980's with the work done by Xerox Corp and
having been popularized by Apple in its early Lisa computer and the
better known MacIntosh series of computers. About this time, also,
there were efforts made to bring graphical user interfaces to UNIX computers
and the X Windows system was developed as a client server based system
to provide UNIX with a windowing type of interface. With Linux having
come on the scene in the early 90's, the X Windows system was ported
to run in the Linux environment in what is known as the XFree86 system.
Much information can be found about this project including compatibility
with various graphics cards at http://www.xfree86.org
