I've got a system running Linux and X is installed for local use (no daemon
running).  Mostly I use it text only via ssh.  I can get X working with
Mozilla and look at things, but not sure what I'd be looking for, or if I'd
be able to hack the code.  I'll give it a try later.  If all else fails, I
could look into setting up temporary access to an X server (tunelled over
SSL), so someone with Windows could use an X-Windows client (used to be
something called PC-XWare, not sure what's available now) and look at the
Linux/Unix side of things.

VNC (Virtual Network Computing) is somewhat less secure I think, and also
requires hefty bandwidth as it sends the entire desktop graphics instead of
just window positions and keyboard and mouse events like with X.  You'd have
to shrink the window to like 1024x768 and go to 256 color mode, and even
then it would be sluggish at best, even over DSL or cable.  I know because
I've done it several times.  :)

I'll update in a couple days.
