In the X Window System , XFree86 Acceleration Architecture XAA is a driver architecture to make a video card s 2D hardware acceleration available to the X server. It was written by Harm Hanemaayer in 1996 and first released in XFree86 version 3.3. It was completely rewritten for XFree86 4.0. Most drivers implement acceleration using the XAA module. XAA is on by default, though acceleration of individual functions can be switched off as needed in the server configuration file tt XF86Config tt or tt xorg.conf tt . The driver for the ARK chipset was the original development platform for XAA. In X.Org Server release 6.9 7.0, EXA was released as a replacement for XAA, as XAA supplies almost no speed advantage for current video cards. EXA is regarded as an intermediate step to converting the entire X server to using OpenGL .

Orphan date October 2007 This article discusses the Xwin discussion forums. For the X Win32 X server, see X Win32 . Keith Packard started the XWin project in 2003 in order to provide forums for collaborative and co operative discussion between X Window System X developers, X end users, and potential developers. Due to misleading media reports from news sites such as Slashdot and others, the public gained the incorrect impression that the project had Fork software development fork ed the XFree86 source code. The Xwin project however never did perform a fork of XFree86, and never intended to do so. The Xwin project clearly stated this on the project homepage Quote Web site title header Xwin.org Xwin is just a website xwin.org is a forum for community participation in X, not a development project. The X development community needs to work together to form a government. The hope is that community governance will encourage rapid advances in the X window system. Subsequently the XWin forum closed, and it now directs users to freedesktop.org . Keith Packard began a new development branch of the X Window System under the name Xserver hosted at freedesktop.org. Xserver uses the KDrive Application programming interface API device driver driver model. This next generation of X Window System X server follows a different direction to that of XFree86 .

The configuration file XF86Config of the XFree86 project is used by the X server to set necessary configuration parameters. It is a plain text file ordered into sections and subsections. Important sections are Files , InputDevice , Monitor , Modes , Screen , Device , and ServerLayout . ref citebook title Inside Linux author Michael Tobler year 2000 publisher Sams Publishing isbn 0735709408 page 102 ref Sections can appear in any order and there may be more than one section of each kind, for example, if you have more than one monitor, say a video projector and an on board LCD of a notebook. The Monitor sections are for the physical displaying devices, the Screen sections are for the logical displays, so you can have two monitors displaying the same content or entirely different information. The option SWCursor in the Device section for example controls whether the mouse pointer is mirrored on an external monitor or suppressed. On typical Unix like systems the file often is found in tt etc X11 tt and a log file is in tt var log tt , typically named tt XFree86.0.log tt for the last start of X and tt XFree86.0.log.old tt for the previous one. Inappropriate editing of this file may result in a black or illegible screen or might even damage the monitor, especially if it is a cathode ray tube CRT . The user should be able to operate the system through console mode i.e. text mode when configuring X, as X might fail to start due to an invalid configuration leaving the user with merely the CLI. Xorg.conf In the X.org Server fork of the XFree86 project, the file is called tt xorg.conf tt , but the specification is nearly identical. The X.org Server tries, however, to autoconfigure as much as possible with the aim of making xorg.conf unnecessary in the greatest proportion of cases.

KDrive or freedesktop.org Xserver or just Xserver is a small X Window System server implementation created by Keith Packard . Unlike the X.Org Server , KDrive was not based on XFree86 code. It was used by X.Org developers as a testing ground for new ideas, such as EXA . It practically superseded SmallX also known as TinyX and is commonly used in embedded system s with the need for a very thin X server. A specific feature of KDrive was that it was configured at compile time, not at run time. It was often compiled to use the native Linux framebuffer device as output. As of X.Org Server version 7.1, the KDrive framework was integrated into the reference implementation and is now part of the generic source code release of the server.
