It emulates a dumb framebuffer using -virtual memory. -.PP -The primary use of this server was intended to be server testing. The -fb code for any depth can be exercised with this server -without the need for real hardware that supports the desired depths. -The X community has found many other novel uses for \fIXvfb\fP, -including testing clients against unusual depths and screen -configurations, doing batch processing with \fIXvfb\fP as a background -rendering engine, load testing, as an aid to porting the X server to a -new platform, and providing an unobtrusive way to run applications -that don't really need an X server but insist on having one anyway. -.SH BUILDING -To build \fIXvfb\fP, put the following in your host.def and remake. -.PP -\&#define BuildServer YES /\(** if you aren't already building other servers */ -.br -\&#define XVirtualFramebufferServer YES - -.SH OPTIONS -.PP -In addition to the normal server options described in the \fIXserver(1)\fP -manual page, \fIXvfb\fP accepts the following command line switches: -.TP 4 -.B "\-screen \fIscreennum\fP \fIWxHxD\fP" -This option creates screen \fIscreennum\fP and sets its width, height, -and depth to W, H, and D respectively. By default, only screen 0 exists -and has the dimensions 1280x1024x12. -.TP 4 -.B "\-pixdepths \fIlist-of-depths\fP" -This option specifies a list of pixmap depths that the server should -support in addition to the depths implied by the supported screens. -\fIlist-of-depths\fP is a space-separated list of integers that can -have values from 1 to 32. -.TP 4 -.B "\-fbdir \fIframebuffer-directory\fP" -This option specifies the directory in which the memory mapped files -containing the framebuffer memory should be created. -See FILES. -This option only exists on machines that have the mmap and msync system -calls. -.TP 4 -.B "\-shmem" -This option specifies that the framebuffer should be put in shared memory. -The shared memory ID for each screen will be printed by the server. -The shared memory is in xwd format. -This option only exists on machines that support the System V shared memory -interface. -.PP -If neither \fB\-shmem\fP nor \fB\-fbdir\fP is specified, -the framebuffer memory will be allocated with malloc(). -.TP 4 -.B "\-linebias \fIn\fP" -This option specifies how to adjust the pixelization of thin lines. -The value \fIn\fP is a bitmask of octants in which to prefer an axial -step when the Bresenham error term is exactly zero. See the file -Xserver/mi/miline.h for more information. This option is probably only useful -to server developers to experiment with the range of line pixelization -possible with the fb code. -.TP 4 -.B "\-blackpixel \fIpixel-value\fP, \-whitepixel \fIpixel-value\fP" -These options specify the black and white pixel values the server should use. -.SH FILES -The following files are created if the \-fbdir option is given. -.TP 4 -\fIframebuffer-directory\fP/Xvfb_screen<n> -Memory mapped file containing screen n's framebuffer memory, one file -per screen. The file is in xwd format. Thus, taking a full-screen -snapshot can be done with a file copy command, and the resulting -snapshot will even contain the cursor image. -.SH EXAMPLES -.TP 8 -Xvfb :1 -screen 0 1600x1200x32 -The server will listen for connections as server number 1, and screen 0 -will be depth 32 1600x1200. -.TP 8 -Xvfb :1 -screen 1 1600x1200x16 -The server will listen for connections as server number 1, will have the -default screen configuration (one screen, 1280x1024x12), and screen 1 -will be depth 16 1600x1200. -.TP 8 -Xvfb -pixdepths 3 27 -fbdir /usr/tmp -The server will listen for connections as server number 0, will have the -default screen configuration (one screen, 1280x1024x12), -will also support pixmap -depths of 3 and 27, -and will use memory mapped files in /usr/tmp for the framebuffer. -.TP 8 -xwud -in /usr/tmp/Xvfb_screen0 -Displays screen 0 of the server started by the preceding example. -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.PP -X(__miscmansuffix__), Xserver(1), xwd(1), xwud(1), XWDFile.h -.SH AUTHORS -David P.
