So if you subscribe to the idea that > /dev/tty is an example of 'everything is a file', then Local Linux X11 clients typically use Linux abstract sockets, so if these are X11 clients then this likely is something Ubuntu or XWayland are doing. On my Debian (IceWM running in xvnc) and Tumbleweed (KDE Plasma/X11) machines there is no /tmp/.X11. There is /tmp/.X11-unix/Xn, where "n" is the display number, which is a domain socket that local X11 clients can use instead of TCP/IP if I'm not mistaken. -- \m/ (--) \m/ _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
