Dear All, I am a newbie for using X server and extensions. I am trying to understand window creation in x server and the memory allocation related to it. I understand that there is a primary "Root Window" created when X server starts up. I have a few questions related to this: 1. Is the memory allocated for "Root Window" in some way mapped to the frame buffer ? 2. How is the memory allocated for child/client windows when I make a call to XCreateWindow function ? 3. A window is made visible on the screen when XMapWidnow function is called, how does it show on screen? By copying/composting to root window or to framebuffer?
Thanks, Pulsar
