Yes, XDMX is amazing, but the last time I used it (literally 15 years ago), it required a hand crafted xorg.conf, which is not really practical in 2020 with notebooks and frequently changing settings.
XDMX won't work with Mac OS, thought, except you want to work with X11-only apps (defacto a lightweight "virtual machine" without native mac apps).
- acct776 6y ago15 years is long, even longer in Linux time...
- ktpsns 6y agoTime is relative to your age, young padawan ;-) The Xdmx changelog stops 16 years ago: http://dmx.sourceforge.net/ChangeLog http://dmx.sourceforge.net/ChangeLog , the last update at https://sourceforge.net/projects/dmx/ https://sourceforge.net/projects/dmx/ is 5 yrs ago. It still uses CVS at Sourceforge. The code will certainly still run modern day X11 applications, but probably with poor performance. I wonder what Wayland can offer in this respect (regarding fancy X11 servers such as Xnest, Xvnc or Xdmx).
