Keith Packard cba2af9aff Allow for missing or disabled compat_output
When the compat output is missing (I don't think this is actually
possible), or is disabled (and hence has no crtc), we would like to
avoid dereferencing NULL pointers. This patch creates inline functions
to extract the current compat output, crtc or associated RandR crtc
structure, carefully checking for NULL pointers everywhere.

					X Server

The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.

For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the
following article:
