[3e7ee20] | 33 | <para>There are three packages in BLFS that implement the <application>X
|

[d9c80e1] | 34 | Window System</application>: <application>Xorg</application>
|
---|
| 35 | (X11R6 and X11R7) and <application>XFree86</application>. These
|
---|
| 36 | packages are all quite similar. In fact, the base system of
|
---|
| 37 | <application>Xorg</application> is
|
---|
[3e7ee20] | 38 | <application>XFree86</application>-4.4.0RC2. Licensing was the original
|
---|
| 39 | reason for the split. <application>Xorg-&xorg7-version;</application>

| 40 | introduces a completely autotooled build system, but is otherwise the
|
---|
[d9c80e1] | 41 | same codebase as <application>Xorg-&xorg-version;</application>.
|
---|
[36c3ba1] | 42 | Most large commercial distributions have decided to use the

| 48 | unhappy with the administration and progress of
|
---|
| 49 | <application>XFree86</application>. X.org's future plans include
|

[d9c80e1] | 50 | significant improvements to the internals of the system and more
