I think "server" and different "implementations" of it makes it a lot clearer to readers that it's a swappable thing that can serve multiple clients without being too much jargon.

Client Application Installation

For Linux
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
The Looking Glass Client receives frames from an implementation of the Looking
|
|
Glass Server on Windows and displays them on Linux. It also handles input,
|
|
audio, overlays and optional SPICE services.
|
|
|
|
There are currently no Linux distribution packages for the client. First
|
|
:ref:`build it from source <build_client_section>`, then run the following from
|
|
the client build directory as root::
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
To install for the current user only, configure the build with a user-local
|
|
prefix before installing::
|
|
|
|
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="$HOME/.local" ..
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
Ensure ``$HOME/.local/bin`` is in your ``PATH`` when using the user-local
|
|
installation.
