Nested X server

Xnest is a nested X server that simply relays all its requests to another X server, where it runs as a client. This means that it appears as another window in your current X session. Xnest relies upon its parent X server for font services.

Use of the Xephyr X server instead of Xnest is recommended.

This module can be found as the module 'xserver/xorg' at :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/xorg
