Hi! I am going to install XFree (unless someone suggests another X package)
All the networking is going to be over the 14400 V.32 modem -- rather slow
compared to plain Ethernet. I've heard about things like TERM that they can
somehow help to speed-up X-protocol. Did not see that in FAQ -- can somebody
please, explain how it works from both practical and theoretical point :-).
Thanks very much!
