DESCRIPTION

31       While a client using Xlib/XCB  can  issue  requests  and  handle  their
32       replies  or errors with either Xlib or XCB, only one can own and handle
33       the event queue.  By default, Xlib must own the event queue,  for  com‐
34       patibility  with legacy Xlib clients.  Clients can call XSetEventQueue‐
35       Owner immediately after XOpenDisplay to let XCB  own  the  event  queue
36       instead.   Clients  may not call XSetEventQueueOwner at any other time,
37       as this will potentially lose responses.
