Abstract
A method of mapping pixel IDs between X servers that differ in the format of pixel IDs they support is disclosed. The method involves defining a specific type of map for each master/participant pair, thus allowing X servers that support different formats to participate in one conference and to view colors that are as close to the application's request as each X server deems possible. A method of supporting applications that are dependent on mathematical operations on pixel values by an X Windows conferencing enabler is further disclosed. The mathematical operations on pixel values are common among X Windows applications that are color intensive, such as scientific visualization programs. This method allows these applications to be displayed with colors that are as close as the supports to the colors requested by the application as supported by the X server.
