GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 311531
X Windows is wrong term
Last modified: 2005-07-26 17:48:44 UTC
X Window System should not be called X Windows as is currently in src/applet.c:1969: "The X Windows graphical system did not properly start, which prevents new graphical logins. It is likely that X or GDM is not properly configured." Maybe this could be "The X Window System did not properly ..." because omitting "graphical" wouldn't make it harder to understand, IMHO.
Fixed in CVS HEAD.
