question about X inner working(and netbsd's)
Someone said that X do not open a tty.
Then how is it called, the place that one can access through CtrL+ALT+F[6-9] and which show graphical things ? How can we say to run but to not occupy the screen, to do everything like it would run Xserver without actually messing with the screen, or if you want, without sending binary data(which I caught with 'script') that used to be pictures when it works ? I am not programmer(not yet) but I would like to know more about the systems's inner working. The question was to begin with, why 'X > /dev/null 2>&1' doesn't nullify the graphical ouput, as I thought it was just in the end an virtual terminal made busy with pictures. Thanks |
