[ale] X Server Question

[jeff tillotson]

My very limited understanding of how using remote displays work is the client sends calls to the server and 
the server realizes those calls under its own x resources.  So running something like:
	xclock -display hostname:0 
uses hostname's x serttings.  So in my case, which I probably did a terrible job explaining, is the GeForce3 
card is in the server and the client (an SGI o2 for this example) is utilizing its x resources and its opnGL 
stuff.  And the nVidia drivers seems to have a bug that this -ac option is supposed to fix.  

Then again I could be all wrong.  

Regards,
Jeff
