There are two X extensions which support double-buffering:
GLX and DOUBLE-BUFFER.
The GLX extension is the glue that integrates OpenGL into X;
man glXSwapBuffers might be a reasonable place to start reading.
DOUBLE-BUFFER (see man DBE) was introduced in X11R6.1 (March 5, 1996)
and replaces an older extension (Multi-Buffering or MBE).
