The VDPAU interface is to be implemented by device drivers, such as the Nvidia GeForce driver, nouveau, or amdgpu, to offer end-user software, such as VLC media player or GStreamer, a standardized access to available video decompression acceleration hardware in the form of application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) blocks on graphics ...
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]
Xorg's version of Xephyr uses only software rendering for OpenGL, but Feng Haitao has developed a forked version of Xephyr which can do hardware-accelerated rendering if the underlying X server has the capability.
The Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) is a subsystem of the Linux kernel responsible for interfacing with GPUs of modern video cards.DRM exposes an API that user-space programs can use to send commands and data to the GPU and perform operations such as configuring the mode setting of the display.
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).
