    The x server on the clients computer should take care of that.
    I typically turn it off wherever the system starts into runlevel 3.

    Except sometimes people (users) export X application from those machines,
    which get displayed on their local machine. Will xfs be needed on for that?
    If not than I'll just shut it down.

    Furthermore, on one of the machines I tried to go back to the original
    XFree86-xfs that comes with RH 9, and it seems to fix the problem. So there's
    something funky with the up2date version...

    Thanks.
