This article is about MPX the Multi-Pointer X Window Server. For other meanings see
MPX (disambiguation). MPX is an acronym for the Multi-pointer X Server. MPX is a modification to the existing
X.Org implementation of the
X Window windowing system. MPX provides multiple independent pointers (mouse cursors) at the windowing system level. These cursors are all connected to one computer. Unlike many other multi-pointer applications and toolkits, MPX allows many existing X Window applications to run unmodified, whilst still providing additional input features. For instance, multiple users can simultaneously operate different applications at the same time. Some applications do not work as expected due to limitations in the toolkits they use. The limitations are caused by the assumption that only one pointer exists.
