- Use xdpyinfo and look at lines 2 through 4. Version number 11.0
- corresponds to X11, and when the vendor string is "MIT X Consortium" the
- first digit of the vendor release number is the X11 release (other vendors
- may put their own release number there -- for instance, Sun puts the
- OpenWindows version number there).
