This is not quite correct. Virtually all GUIs make use of X Window
facilties, but they are not X Window. Most widespread are
http://www.kde.org and http://www.gnome.org . Despite that KDE
currently offers more features, Gnome's concept is imo more powerful
(apps not limited to just C++) and proven (it's based on the same
toolkit as The Gimp), and it does not suffer from legal problems
due to TrollTechs proprietary (despite available as source, you
are not allowed to modify it) Qt library as KDE does.
Personally I use FVWM, and, occasionally, KDE. I'll switch over to
Gnome once its beyond beta.
