Operating Systems Solaris Unable to run xclock Post 302146406 by Lakris on Tuesday 20th of November 2007 10:42:33 AM

Nice going!

The benefit of having an X-server running is that You can run X Window programs on any *nix host (through putty for example) and display/control them on Your local machine. Xclock is actually a very bad example since You probably have a better clock locally! Smilie

But it can be practical in some situations, for example when there is no corresponding application in Your Windows environment, a research institute can have a resource hungry statistical application on a main frame or cluster that would be pointless to run on a workstation.
