As far as I know ChromeOS does use Xorg, but does its own window management. So basically everything you see is INSIDE one single X window.

I think the Crouton project has a section with more details about the setup, because people want to mix chroot windows and Chrome windows. Maybe relevant: https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton/wiki/crouton-in-a-Chrom...

This used to be true; freon came in 2015 and eliminated the X server on most Chrome OS devices.
