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 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 1280x1024x8. +.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, 1280x1024x8), and screen 1 +will be depth 16 1600x1200. +.TP 8 +Xvfb -pixdepths 3 27 -fbdir /var/tmp +The server will listen for connections as server number 0, will have the +default screen configuration (one screen, 1280x1024x8), +will also support pixmap +depths of 3 and 27, +and will use memory mapped files in /var/tmp for the framebuffer. +.TP 8 +xwud -in /var/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.
