Previously, cairo would often have to download the old wallpaper from the X11 server and then upload it again. It did this because it couldn't see that the two X11 connections involved are actually connected to the same X11 server. This commit fixes this by setting up the pixmap from our main X11 connection. This is the same connection that we use for accessing the "old" wallpaper and thus cairo doesn't have to do stupid things. The big improvement with this is that this speeds up wallpaper setup a lot.

awesome
=======
awesome is a highly configurable, next generation framework window manager for X.
Building and installation
-------------------------
After extracting the dist tarball, run:
make
This will create a build directory, run cmake in it and build awesome.
After building is finished, you can install:
make install # you might need root permissions
Running awesome
---------------
You can directly select awesome from your display manager. If not, you can
add the following line to your .xinitrc to start awesome using startx
or to .xsession to start awesome using your display manager:
exec awesome
In order to connect awesome to a specific display, make sure that
the DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:
DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec awesome
(This will start awesome on display :1 of the host foo.bar.)
Configuration
-------------
The configuration of awesome is done by creating a $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/awesome/rc.lua file.
An example configuration named "awesomerc.lua.in" is provided in the source.
Troubleshooting
---------------
In most systems any message printed by awesome (including warnings and errors)
are written to $HOME/.xsession-errors.
If awesome does not start or the configuration file is not producing the desired
results the user should examine this file to gain insight into the problem.
