displays :0, :1?
hello,
Im discovering the x windows system, getting info about the subject, and gathering questions. Looks like the xorg is the server under the windows managers, which are under the "eye-catching" desktop environments. am i right? ok, xorg is a client-server application that can accept petitions in the same pc as its installed, or over the lan. right? Now, interacting with VNC, i see ":1" which seems to refer to displays, i suppose that refers to graphical displays? is :0 -> tty1? :1 tty2? more questions to come, thanks. |

Many desktop environments use multiple (typ. 4) desktops + sometimes other "locations" such as the background of the dektop cube animation or window flipping. Them all are still on :0
Now if you do a switch user you open a second X runing in parallel. The screen of this one is going to be :1 in this case, but not necessarily allways, Alt Ctrl F7 is getting you to :0 and Alt Ctrl F8 to :1 When sharing desktops over the network something might be different, I am unsure how it works in this case |
