|Short description=Xorg implementation of the X Window System
|Full description=The X.Org project is a free implementation of the X Window System which runs on most free operating systems, including on the GNU system and its GNU/Linux variants.
+
|Full description=This package provides the Xorg X server itself. The X server accepts requests from client programs to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) 'virtual screens' that the client program can draw into.
  
X.Org Server is used for the windowing graphical user interface on GNU and BSD systems.
+
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders.
 
 
''xorg-server'' refers to the X servers packages of X.

Xorg implementation of the X Window System

This package provides the Xorg X server itself. The X server accepts requests from client programs to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) 'virtual screens' that the client program can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders.
