It's not all time wasted :-) In fact, I would say you've learned a ton |
| 8 |
of stuff that will stand you in very good stead for the future. You now |
| 9 |
know how to export X11 over the network, which is one of the basic |
| 10 |
things X was designed to do. However, very very very few Linux users |
| 11 |
seem to know how to do it :-) |

You know the secret to getting a DM to allow it all in the first place, |
| 14 |
and you also know what to do when ssh capabilities are on the server. |

So all round it sounds like a useful exercise you went through. In fact |
| 17 |
it sounds *exactly* like the stuffing around I had to do when I learned |
| 18 |
the same lessons :-) |
