   is  an  Open  Source  versions  of  the  X  Window System that
   supports many UNIX(R) and UNIX-like operating systems (such as
   Linux,  FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD and Solaris x86) on Intel and
   other  platforms.  This version is compatible with X11R7.1 and
   other  X  window  system implementations which support the X11
   standard.What  is X11R7.2?X11R7.2 is the second release in the
   X11R7  series.  Tarballs  for  packages  that have had updates
   since  the  7.1 release are included in this release. To build
   this  release,  you  will  first need to get the packages from
   X11R7.1 and then add the new packages from X11R7.2 to them.The
   7.2  version  is  a new minor release that includes additional
   hardware  support,  functional  enhancements  and  bug  fixes.
   Specific  release  enhancements  can  be viewed in the Release
   Notes.Most  modern  PC  video  hardware  is  supported in this
   release,  and  most  PC  video  hardware  that isn't supported
   explicitly  can  be  used  with the "vesa" driver. The Release
   Notes  has  a table showing the drivers provided with X11R7.2,
   and  links  to  related  documentation.The  X.Org Foundation X

   technology  and  standards. Membership in the X.Org Foundation
   is  free  to all participants. Applications for Membership are
   now  being  accepted,  and  active participants in the further
   development of the X Window Technology are invited to complete

   Foundation  and  includes code from the X Consortium, the Open
   Group  and  the XFree86(TM) project. This release is dedicated
   to   the   greater   X   community,   developers   and   users
   alike.LicensingX  Window System source code is covered by many

   the  modular  tree packages see the Modular Developer's Guide.
   This  guide  also contains information for developers who want
   to  help  improve  the  modular  build system and modular code
   base.The  current  development  treeThe X source code for this
   and all releases/snapshots as well as development versions can
   also  be accessed via the Freedesktop.org CVS repository. It's
   also  possible  to  browse the freedesktop CVS repository. The
