x11
Hi,
I have following this blog in setting Xvfb in my ubuntu environment:
http://corpocrat.com/2008/08/19/how-to-install-xvfb-x11-server-in-linux-server/
So I did this: Xvfb :1 -screen 0 800x600x24&
My question is does Xvfb only allocate memory during initialization? i.e. just enough for a display of 800x600x24? So as I have more and more programs (different programs or same program multiple times) display to the Xvfb , it does not allocate more memory?
Thank you.
