technical print service (TPS)
The Technical Print Service,
tps(5)
, is a network transparent printing
system that allows X applications to render to non screen devices in the
same manner they render to displays. It may also be referenced as the X
Print Service. Please refer to the
tps(5)
man page for details on
configuring and using TPS.
virtual frame buffer (Xvfb)
Xvfb(1)
is an X Server that does not require display hardware or input
devices. It emulates a video frame buffer by using the system’s virtual
memory.
Xvfb may be used for: rendering with non-standard depths and screen
configurations, software rendering, providing a way to run applications
that don't need an X Server but for some reason insist on having one, etc.
Generally the user application must use functions such as
XGetImage(3)
in order to see what was actually rendered.
security
See Xf86(1) for information on configuring the Xf86 security policies, files
and settings.
connecting to the network
The X Server supports client connections via a platform-dependent sub-
set of the following transport types: TCP/IP and Unix Domain sockets.
granting access
Information on X Server authorization may be found in the Xf86(1) man
pages.
signals
See Xf86(1) for information on how the X Server handles signals.
