A german company called X/software has implemented X Window 11 Version 2 on the Atari ST. They did a presentation here at our computer center some weeks ago. The Atari was connected via serial line 19200 baud to a Microvax with Ultrix. X Windows was running on an Apollo connected via tcp/ip and ethernet to the Microvax. X Window client programs running on the Apollo had their output windows on the Atari. The output was slow due to the serial line connection. In the meantime another company is offering an Ethernet board for the Atari. Next week we will have a test installation of the ethernet board together with the X Window 11 version 2 here. I hope that the i/o rate via ethernet will be much better. Ulrich Lang University of Stuttgart Computer Center ZRFA@DS0RUS1I.BITNET or ZRFA0128@DS0RUS54
