X.Org Server is the free and open-source implementation of the X Window System (X11) display server stewarded by the X.Org Foundation.. Implementations of the client-side X Window System protocol exist in the form of X11 libraries, which serve as helpful APIs for communicating with the X server. [4]
Another use for Cygwin/X is as an X terminal: applications running on another computer access the Cygwin/X X server via the X protocol over an IP network. One can run XDM on the remote system so that a user can log into the remote computer via a window on the Cygwin/X system and then the remote system puts up web browsers, terminal windows, and ...
an application can request the server not to satisfy requests of mapping (showing) subwindows of a given window, and to be sent an event instead; an application can request changing the parent of a window. The window manager uses the first request to intercept any request for mapping top-level windows (children of the root window).
The X server is typically the provider of graphics resources and keyboard/mouse events to X clients, meaning that the X server is usually running on the computer in front of a human user, while the X client applications run anywhere on the network and communicate with the user's computer to request the rendering of graphics content and receive ...
The file xorg.conf is a file used for configuring the X.Org Server. While typically located in /etc/X11/xorg.conf , its location may vary across operating system distributions (See manual, "man xorg.conf" for details and further possible locations).
the Xlib functions that send requests block until the appropriate replies, if any is expected, are received; in other words, an X Window client not using Xlib can send a request to the server and then do other operations while waiting for the reply, but a client using Xlib can only call an Xlib function that sends the request and wait for the ...
From the point of view of an X session manager, a session is a “state of the desktop” at a given time: a set of windows with their current content. More precisely, a session is the set of clients managing these windows or related to them and the information that allows these applications to restore the condition of these windows if required.
A WebDAV request may contain many sub-requests involving file operations, requiring a long time to complete the request. This code indicates that the server has received and is processing the request, but no response is available yet. [3] This prevents the client from timing out and assuming the request was lost. The status code is deprecated. [4]
