  • Migrating HP VUE Desktop Customizations to CDE
    Migrating HP VUE Desktop Customizations to CDE With CDE becoming the UNIX desktop standard, it is important to allow HP VUE users to preserve their customizations when moving over to the CDE desktop. A set of tools has been developed to make this transition as complete and effortless as possible. by Molly Joy The HP Visual User Environment (HP VUE), combined with a set of applications, is a powerful graphical environment for interacting with the computer. It provides a consistent user interface and is based on OSF/Motif, which was created to enable different applications to behave the same way, eliminating the need for users to learn multiple command sets to control applications. The need for standards was recognized early by Hewlett-Packard with its support for industry standards such as the X Consortium and the Open Software Foundation (OSF). Although HP VUE provided users with an easy-to-use desktop interface, there was no industry standard graphical user interface (GUI) for desktop computers running the UNIX operating system and the X Window System. What this meant was that even though Motif applications behaved the same across multiple platforms there was no commonality in the graphical user interface, which was referred to as a desktop. This was a serious limitation from the perspective of both the end user who had to learn to operate different desktops in a heterogeneous computing environment and the application developer who had to develop and integrate applications into multiple desktops. This was also a cost factor in enterprises with multivendor computing environments because of the costs involved in training users and integrating new systems into existing heterogeneous networked environments.

X server running a system only allows X client on that system to talk to it. X server does not allow connections from other X clients unless you explicitly allow it. 3 X Window System security Utility: xhost [+|-][hostname] The xhost command allows or denies access to the X server on a system. With no arguments, xhost prints its current settings and which hosts (if any) have access. By specifying only +, you can give access to all hosts, or by specifying only -, deny access to all hosts. When a hostname is specified after a + or -, access is granted or denied, respectively, to that host. 4 X Window System security Utility: xhost [+|-][hostname] For example: $ xhost +bluenote allows X clients running on system "bluenote" to write to the display on the system where the xhost utility was run.

However, as well as the desktop shifting, the GTK toolkit also shifted, and a lot of other desktop environments relied on that GTK 2. LXDE was one of those environments, and they weren’t happy with the direction GTK 3 was taking, so the developers have decided to make a clean break and switch to the Qt toolkit that’s most famously used in KDE. This new desktop environment, known as LXQT, is still in development, so not many distros have included it yet, but Siduction has. At first it feels a little strange, because Siduction was also one of the first distros to feature Razor-qt, another Qt-based desktop. some parts are reminiscent of KDE, such as the control centre and the notifications area. cashew, and none of the KDE apps are browser.
