The OS/2 X Window System server (PMX) enables you to display and control X Window System client application programs in OS/2 windowed sessions. These client application programs can reside in one or more IBM or other computing systems that support the X Window System client function. They are connected to the PMX server through a TCP/IP network. IBM systems that can support X Window System clients include OS/2, VM, MVS, and AIX* (RISC/6000*, Personal Systems/2* (PS/2*), and System/370*).

PMX uses OS/2 Presentation Manager (PM) as the X Window System manager and supports all of the keyboard, display, and pointer devices that are supported by OS/2 Presentation Manager. Using Presentation Manager as the X Window System manager enables OS/2 windowed applications and X Window System client applications to share the same screen. As a result, another window manager (such as Motif**) cannot act as the window manager for PMX.
