Dear Sirs!
I have just managed to install archlinux. Not an easy task for somene that is not an expert in arch linux.
A little question: how do I install the standard X11 programs? Is there a package containing them all? I think xsm, xinit, xterm, twm, xclock, xman, and all clients.
Or should I install each program separated?
Thanks
Rod.

Welcome :-)
I think xsm, xinit, xterm, twm, xclock, xman, and all clients.
What clients?
pkgfile https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pkgfile doens't know anything about xsm - what is it?

The X Session Manager, available in AUR:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xorg-xsm/
and described in man page:
http://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.1/doc/xsm.1.html

Most of them are 100% useless, just install those you *know* you *really* need.

I installed X using page 13 of this guide: http://www.linuxveda.com/2015/02/18/arc … b-2015/13/
EDIT: Note that if you have a modern graphics card you want to install nvidia-libgl not mesa-libgl.

Toqoz, please do not advise users to use tutorials other than the wiki. I glanced over that tutorial, and within a minute I found two glaring errors that will likely cause problems for many users (including encouraging partial upgrades).
@OP, do not use that guide.

this will work
pacman -S xorg-server xorg-server-utils xorg-xinit xorg-twm xorg-xclock xterm

gonny95 Please don't paste commands from the wiki: Arch users are expected to be able to read the documentation, not have their hands held.
