First of all, make sure that you have the X clients installed in the
filesystem that you're going to boot. Then boot the virtual machine
and set up networking to the host. See the
<a href="networking.html">networking tutorial</a> for instructions on
doing that. If necessary, xhost the virtual machine on the host.
<p>
At this point, set your display to the host
<blockquote>
<tt>
<font color="#000000">export DISPLAY=host-ip:0</font>
</tt>
</blockquote>
and run whatever X clients you want.

<blockquote head="Running a local virtual X server">
Before booting the virtual machine, make sure that it contains Xnest,
which is the UML X server. On some distributions, it is packaged with
the X clients, and on others, it's not. Then boot the virtual
machine, and follow the directions above to run Xnest displaying on
the host. Xnest will create a window which will be its root window.
All clients of the Xnest will be displayed within that window.
<p>
Now, set your display to the default local X server:
<blockquote>
<tt>
<font color="#000000">export DISPLAY=:0</font>
</tt>
</blockquote>
and run whatever X clients you like. I normally run fvwm2, which
gives me enough of an X environment that I don't need to go back to
the console.
<p>
See the <a href="net.html">virtual network</a> and <a href="x.html">X
session</a> screenshots for examples of X in action under UML.
