Usually I check after that someone gave me some general idea. This helps me

I think i can detach an application with ssh and a proper parameter. I dont
understand what performs better. And whats better for my InterCube Os idea.
Ssh or xpra or x2go.

This ugly nightmare breaks window managers that were not re-written from

The only way I will be using Wayland would be if/when real X.org drivers

What about wayland ? can it attach and detach indivudual remote
