Description of X Server

This application implements a mostly-complete X11 server, running natively in Android. It allows X Window System applications to be run remotely and displayed on an Android device with internet access.
Note that this application does not come with a window manager. However, it is possible to run a window manager remotely, which is fiddly but seems to work.
This is still a beta release, so feel free to report any bugs you find, or, better yet, fix them yourself. Yes, it's open source, hosted at http://code.google.com/p/android-xserver/

What's New with X Server 1.21

    As the description makes clear, this app is not a full, finished, plug-and-play solution for literally anything!! don't install it if you're not trying to do something for which you know you need an X server. And if you do, don't give it a one-star review because it doesn't look like it's doing anything. This is great, thanks for making it!

    Yes, this is an X server, but it only works with ancient X applications. Newer applications print out errors and fail to run.
