Embedded Linux is becoming more mainstream. Since these embedded Linux systems are not general purpose systems running just any application, then it is possible to scrub APIs out of the X, Xt, and widget libraries. This is a common practice for X-terminals that have local clients. I would like to see an embedded Linux system be "LSB Level-1" compliant. That would give the customer/user some warm fuzzies, but allow the embedded Linux supplier the opportunity to chop away at the graphics. X11 is an added reason why many small embedded systems don't use UNIX/Linux. Best regards, George Kraft IV [EMAIL PROTECTED] 512-838-2688; t/l 678-2688 IBM Linux Technology Center
