Linux Graphic User Interface
The traditional graphics server for Linux used to build graphical user interfaces (GUIs) is the X Window System (X11, 6000/TCP).
Modern systems are moving to Wayland.
Applications are rendered by a Window Manager which is optionally managed by a desktop environment. The graphical data is sent to the server which passes it to the graphical hardware.
