mmm. I am not sure we are talking about the same thing.
If yes.. then I'd like to learn how to do it the other way.
But to be sure I will tell how I see it. If you still think otherways,
please point me to some docu. Or at least say so. That would be cool.
What I think, how it is (not sure though)
To export the display of a program you need
a running X-Server at the computer where the display will
point to.
And where the program runs,
you need some X-files
(no, not the ones with the small grey things from ufos),
some stuff from X, too.
That is the reason why I talk about ca. 70 MB.
FireStarter is small. But to start the gui, the
system wants some other files.
At least, I thought so until now.
When I say "apt-get install firestarter" it will
get firestart + needed files.
And if I have no X related files there, it starts to
download lots of them.
Do I understand you right, that I do not have to
download these X-files, if I intend to export the display
to another computer ?
That would be really nice.
Cu,
Andreas
