Well, maybe I'm overcomplicating things.... But still: gdk_pixmap_unref
is mentioned in gtk-perl code the once: in bg_pixmap function, when
the background pixmap is changed. As I understand, to remove pixmap on
server side one has either to unref it explicitely via XFreePixmap() or
to disconnect from X-server. I create a pixmap with 'new Gtk::Gdk::Pixmap()'
which is mapped to gdk_pixmap_new(). XFreePixmap() is called only from
gdk_pixmap_unref() (at least in gtk+ 1.2.6). I didn't find a destructor for
gdk pixmap in .xs files and gdk_pixmap_unref() in perl-gtk is called only from
bg_pixmap.

How one can check, which pixmaps exist in X server? Is there a utility to
list an X-server internal objects?

Thanks
