Configuring the Xservers File

4.1 Overview


This section describes how to configure the Xservers file for use
with one or more graphics cards. The GFX 550e device name
will be

mko#,

where

‘#’

represents the device instance

number. A GFX 550e card however, will have a single device
name corresponding to both heads.

To set the resolution and bit-depth or to enable “wide” mode for
the Xwindows environment, please use the

mkoconfig

utility as

described in Section 3.4.

4.1.1 GFX 550e Card as the Console

If the GFX 550e card is the console device, then there is no need
to modify the

Xservers

file.

4.2 Common Desktop Environment (CDE)


If you have installed CDE and would like CDE to appear on the
GFX 550e display, you may need to modify your

/etc/dt/config/Xservers

file.


If the file

/etc/dt/config/Xservers

does not exist, please

copy it from the

/usr/dt/config

directory. Type:

prompt# cp /usr/dt/config/Xservers \
/etc/dt/config
