On Solaris 2.5 it also +supports the TCX as an 8-bit color frame buffer. +.I Xsun24 +supports the cgeight 24-bit color frame buffer in addition to the +8-bit color and monochrome frame buffers that +.I Xsun +supports. +.PP +If specific framebuffer device files aren't specified on the command +line with the \fI\-dev\fP switch or in the \fIXDEVICE\fP environment +variable, the server will search for all installed frame buffers and +will use all those that it finds. +.PP +Finally, if no specific framebuffers are found, the generic framebuffer +interface \fI/dev/fb\fP is used. +.PP +.SH KEYBOARDS +.PP +Xsun, Xsun24, and XsunMono support the Type-2, Type-3, and many variations +of the Type-4 and Type-5 keyboards. +.PP +Type-4 and Type-5 keyboards feature a key labeled \fIAltGraph\fP which +is a mode-shift key. The mode-shift key is used to generate the symbols +painted on the fronts of the keys. The mode-shift key works exactly like +the \fIShift\fP, \fIControl\fP, \fIAlt\fP, and \fI<Meta>\fP keys. +.PP +The ten function keys on the left side of the Type-5 keyboard may be +considered as having L1..L10 painted on their fronts. Shift-AltGraph +will cause different keysyms to be generated for some keys, e.g. the +Type-5 \fISysRq\fP key. +.PP +For compatibility with Sun's X11/NeWS server, the F11 and F12 keys may +be made to generate the equivalent X11/NeWS keysyms by using mode-switch. +.PP +For backwards compatibility, the normal and mode-shifted keysyms for +the ten function keys on the left side of Type-4 and Type-5 keyboards +may be swapped via command line option. See \fI-swapLkeys\fP. +.PP +The X LEDs 1..4 correspond to the NumLock, ScrollLock, Compose, and +CapsLock LEDs respectively. Pressing the key once turns the corresponding +LED on. Pressing the key again turns the LED off. Turning an LED on or +off with e.g. 'xset [-]led [1234]' is equivalent to pressing the +corresponding key. +.SH OPTIONS +.PP +In addition to the normal server options described in the \fIXserver(1)\fP +manual page, \fIXsun\fP accepts the following command line switches: +.TP 8 +.B "\-ar1 \fImilliseconds\fP" +This option specifies amount of time in milliseconds before which a +pressed key should begin to autorepeat. +.TP 8 +.B "\-ar2 \fImilliseconds\fP" +This option specifies the interval in milliseconds between autorepeats +of pressed keys. +.TP 8 +.B \-swapLkeys +Swaps the normal keysyms for the function keys on the left side of +Type-4 and Type-5 keyboards with the alternate keysyms, i.e. the keysyms +painted on the front of the keys. +.TP 8 +.B \-flipPixels +The normal pixel values for white and black are 0 and 1 respectively. +When -flipPixels is specified these values are reversed. +.TP 8 +.B \-mono +When used with the \fBcgtwo\fP, this option indicates that the server +should emulate a monochrome framebuffer instead of the normal color +framebuffer. When used with the \fBcgfour\fP, this option indicates +that the monochrome screen should be numbered 0 and the color screen +numbered 1 (instead of the other way around). +.TP 8 +.B \-zaphod +This option disables switching between screens by sliding the mouse off +the left or right edges. With this disabled, a window manager function +must be used to switch between screens. +.TP 8 +.B \-debug +This option indicates that the server is being run from a debugger, and +that it should \fBnot\fP put its standard input, output and error files +into non-blocking mode. +.TP 8 +.B "\-dev \fIfilename[:filename]...\fP" +This option specifies the colon separated names of the framebuffer device +files to be used. +.TP 8 +.B "\-fbinfo +This option indicates that the server should enumerate the available +frame buffers that it will use. +.SH ENVIRONMENT +.TP 8 +\fBXDEVICE\fP +If present, and if no explicit \fB-dev\fP options are given, specifies +the (colon separated) list of display devices to use. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.PP +X(__miscmansuffix__), Xserver(1), xdm(1), xinit(1) +.SH BUGS +The auto-configuration depends on there being appropriate special files +in the +.I /dev +directory for the framebuffers which are to be used. Extra entries can +confuse the server. For example, the X/160C in fact has the hardware +for a monochrome +.B bwtwo0 +on the CPU board. So if +.I /dev +has a special file for +.IR /dev/bwtwo0 , +the server will use it, even though there is no monitor attached to the +monochrome framebuffer. +The server will appear to start, but not to paint a cursor, because the +cursor is on the monochrome frame buffer. The solution is to remove the +.I /dev +entries for any device you don't have a monitor for. +.PP +There is a bug in pre-FCS operating systems for the Sun-4 which causes +the server to crash driving a \fBcgtwo\fP. +.PP +.SH AUTHORS +.TP 8 +U.
