> For a long time the X Window System had a reputation for being difficult to configure. Honestly I thought it was hard to configure because until I used Linux, my X terminals didn’t need to be configured at all! I may be misremembering but I think my NCD terminal used bootp and probably a little tftp, then off it went. The hardest part was probably finding an Ethernet drop to plug it into. Now - get off my lawn!
