bc8e9b115c Move the "Understanding X" section to the beginning of the chapter.
It seemed a bit odd to read about the technical details of installing
X, then to read a general overview, and then to read technical details
of installing GNOME or KDE.  This chapter now starts off with the
overview which covers a lot of information that makes the rest of the
chapter easier to digest.
