Hello Ajay,

It would be better if you would present the exact problem.

There is a far superior technology available than using the sickly and
out dated X Windowing System.
Please google for something called VNC (Virtual Network Computing).
I had done a pilot project at my previous employer and the results were
stunning (it performs even over stupid telephone networks).

Awaiting your reply with the _exact_ nature of your requirement.

Warm Regards,

~Mayuresh
