If I am setting the root window's background pixmap, I don't know how I can get the XID of the old one. If it is a window I created, I can cache it but that seems overkill if I'm just wanting to discard the old one. Can someone direct me to how I am supposed to free the old background pixmap?

I access the IDE on my Win 7 laptop using VcXsrv, which is an X server for Windows based on the Xorg sources. I have two questions related to this configuration. 1) Firstly, in general, the IDE is quite sluggish in this configuration. Is there anything I can do on the remote server or the local laptop to improve performance? (for example, I have heard of xorg acceleration, but I don't know what it is). 2) Secondly, I have a very specific question about the IDE behaviour.

When running the IDE, if I right click in an editor window to access a right-click menu option, the expected menu pops up but, after I select a menu item, the editor enters 'text select' mode and highlights a block of text, which is only terminated if I right-click again.

To my knowledge, this is not possible with Xorg at the moment. Correct me if I am wrong, but I think that this is a problem with the X server and not the GUI toolkits like Qt or Gtk+. Is there any way that you could improve Xorg to resize full screen windows on Randr events? g4hx _______________________________________________ xorg&lt; at &gt;lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: gcfx-xorg-2&lt; at &gt;m.gmane.org </pre> g4hx 2012-05-17T17:33:45 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.freedesktop.xorg/47817 <pre>Hi I am running an Eclipse based IDE on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, which runs on a VMWare virtual machine on a remote server.

I have a desktop host (HP Compaq 8200 Elite SFF PC) that has an integrated Intel card and an add-on nVidia card.

However, it is hard and even impossible for me.

It runs for about one minute or so, then shut down automatically. No human interaction is needed.

Our IT support told me that my gui program have no place to put the display.(Since I have logged out, everything has closed). I told them that many people on newsgroup say that it is possible and they don't think so.
