# Compositor stage and hardware relationships
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Brief description of components
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `MetaLogicalMonitor` is one monitor or more monitor occupying the same region of the compositor space. E.g. when mirroring two monitors, both belong to the same logical monitor.
|
||
|
|
- `MetaMonitor` is a single physical monitor, but it can sometimes consist of more than one separate panel (for instance, 5K tiled monitors which literally require 2 cables due to lack of bandwidth)
|
||
|
|
- `MetaOuptut` is a connector e.g. a DisplayPort connector or HDMI connector.
|
||
|
|
- `MetaCrtc` represents a component on the display hardware that channels video memory to connectors.

## Native backend and mode setting
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `MetaGpuKms`, `MetaCrtcKms` and `MetaOutputKms` are used for configuration.
|
||
|
|
* `MetaKmsDevice`, `MetaKmsCrtc`, `MetaKmsConnector` and `MetaKmsPlane` are abstractions on top of kernel mode setting concepts.
