It now runs -on a wider range of hardware and OS platforms. -.PP -This work was derived by the X.Org Foundation from the XFree86 Project's -.I "XFree86\ 4.4rc2" -release. -The XFree86 release was originally derived from -.I "X386\ 1.2" -by Thomas Roell which was contributed to X11R5 by Snitily Graphics -Consulting Service. -.SH PLATFORMS -.PP -.B __xservername__ -operates under a wide range of operating systems and hardware platforms. -The Intel x86 (IA32) architecture is the most widely supported hardware -platform. Other hardware platforms include Compaq Alpha, Intel IA64, AMD64, -SPARC and PowerPC. The most widely supported operating systems are the -free/OpenSource UNIX-like systems such as Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, -OpenBSD, and Solaris. Commercial UNIX operating systems such as -UnixWare are also supported. Other supported operating systems include -GNU Hurd. Mac OS X is supported with the -Xquartz(__appmansuffix__) X server. Win32/Cygwin is supported with the -XWin(__appmansuffix__) X server. -.PP -.SH "NETWORK CONNECTIONS" -.B __xservername__ -supports connections made using the following reliable -byte-streams: -.TP 4 -.I "Local" -On most platforms, the "Local" connection type is a UNIX-domain socket. -On some System V platforms, the "local" connection types also include -STREAMS pipes, named pipes, and some other mechanisms. -.TP 4 -.I TCP\/IP -.B __xservername__ -listens on port -.RI 6000+ n , -where -.I n -is the display number. This connection type can be disabled with the -.B \-nolisten -option (see the Xserver(1) man page for details). -.SH "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES" -For operating systems that support local connections other than Unix -Domain sockets (SVR3 and SVR4), there is a compiled-in list specifying -the order in which local connections should be attempted. This list -can be overridden by the -.I XLOCAL -environment variable described below. If the display name indicates a -best-choice connection should be made (e.g. -.BR :0.0 ), -each connection mechanism is tried until a connection succeeds or no -more mechanisms are available. Note: for these OSs, the Unix Domain -socket connection is treated differently from the other local connection -types. To use it the connection must be made to -.BR unix:0.0 . -.PP -The -.I XLOCAL -environment variable should contain a list of one more -more of the following: -.PP -.RS 8 -.nf -NAMED -PTS -SCO -ISC -.fi -.RE -.PP -which represent SVR4 Named Streams pipe, Old-style USL Streams pipe, -SCO XSight Streams pipe, and ISC Streams pipe, respectively. You can -select a single mechanism (e.g. -.IR XLOCAL=NAMED ), -or an ordered list (e.g. \fIXLOCAL="NAMED:PTS:SCO"\fP). -his variable overrides the compiled-in defaults. For SVR4 it is -recommended that -.I NAMED -be the first preference connection. The default setting is -.IR PTS:NAMED:ISC:SCO . -.PP -To globally override the compiled-in defaults, you should define (and -export if using -.B sh -or -.BR ksh ) -.I XLOCAL -globally. If you use startx(1) or xinit(1), the definition should be -at the top of your -.I .xinitrc -file. If you use xdm(1), the definitions should be early on in the -.I __projectroot__/lib/X11/xdm/Xsession -script. -.SH OPTIONS -.B __xservername__ -supports several mechanisms for supplying/obtaining configuration and -run-time parameters: command line options, environment variables, the -__xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) configuration files, auto-detection, and -fallback defaults. When the same information is supplied in more than -one way, the highest precedence mechanism is used. The list of mechanisms -is ordered from highest precedence to lowest. Note that not all parameters -can be supplied via all methods. The available command line options -and environment variables (and some defaults) are described here and in -the Xserver(__appmansuffix__) manual page. Most configuration file -parameters, with their defaults, are described in the -__xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) manual page. Driver and module specific -configuration parameters are described in the relevant driver or module -manual page. -.PP -In addition to the normal server options described in the -Xserver(__appmansuffix__) manual page, -.B __xservername__ -accepts the following command line switches: -.TP 8 -.BI vt XX -.I XX -specifies the Virtual Terminal device number which -.B __xservername__ -will use. Without this option, -.B __xservername__ -will pick the first available Virtual Terminal that it can locate. This -option applies only to platforms that have virtual terminal support, such -as Linux, BSD, OpenSolaris, SVR3, and SVR4. -.TP -.B \-allowMouseOpenFail -Allow the server to start up even if the mouse device can't be opened -or initialised. This is equivalent to the -.B AllowMouseOpenFail -__xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file option. -.TP 8 -.B \-allowNonLocalXvidtune -Make the VidMode extension available to remote clients. This allows -the xvidtune client to connect from another host. This is equivalent -to the -.B AllowNonLocalXvidtune -__xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file option. By default non-local -connections are not allowed. -.TP 8 -.BI \-bgamma " value" -Set the blue gamma correction. -.I value -must be between 0.1 and 10. -The default is 1.0. Not all drivers support this. See also the -.BR \-gamma , -.BR \-rgamma , -and -.B \-ggamma -options. -.TP 8 -.BI \-bpp " n" -No longer supported. Use -.B \-depth -to set the color depth, and use -.B \-fbbpp -if you really need to force a non-default framebuffer (hardware) pixel -format. -.TP 8 -.BI \-config " file" -Read the server configuration from -.IR file . -This option will work for any file when the server is run as root (i.e, -with real-uid 0), or for files relative to a directory in the config -search path for all other users. -.TP 8 -.BI \-configdir " directory" -Read the server configuration files from -.IR directory . -This option will work for any directory when the server is run as root -(i.e, with real-uid 0), or for directories relative to a directory in the -config directory search path for all other users. -.TP 8 -.B \-configure -When this option is specified, the -.B __xservername__ -server loads all video driver modules, probes for available hardware, -and writes out an initial __xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file based on -what was detected. This option currently has some problems on some -platforms, but in most cases it is a good way to bootstrap the -configuration process. This option is only available when the server -is run as root (i.e, with real-uid 0). -.TP 8 -.BI "\-crt /dev/tty" XX -SCO only. This is the same as the -.B vt -option, and is provided for compatibility with the native SCO X server. -.TP 8 -.BI \-depth " n" -Sets the default color depth. Legal values are 1, 4, 8, 15, 16, and -24. Not all drivers support all values. -.TP 8 -.B \-disableVidMode -Disable the parts of the VidMode extension (used by the xvidtune -client) that can be used to change the video modes. This is equivalent -to the -.B DisableVidModeExtension -__xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file option. -.TP 8 -.B \-fbbpp \fIn\fP -Sets the number of framebuffer bits per pixel. You should only set this -if you're sure it's necessary; normally the server can deduce the correct -value from -.B \-depth -above. Useful if you want to run a depth 24 configuration with a 24 -bpp framebuffer rather than the (possibly default) 32 bpp framebuffer -(or vice versa). Legal values are 1, 8, 16, 24, 32. Not all drivers -support all values. -.TP 8 -.B \-flipPixels -Swap the default values for the black and white pixels. -.TP 8 -.BI \-gamma " value" -Set the gamma correction. -.I value -must be between 0.1 and 10. The default is 1.0. This value is applied -equally to the R, G and B values. Those values can be set independently -with the -.BR \-rgamma , -.BR \-bgamma , -and -.B \-ggamma -options. Not all drivers support this. -.TP 8 -.BI \-ggamma " value" -Set the green gamma correction. -.I value -must be between 0.1 and 10. The default is 1.0. Not all drivers support -this. See also the -.BR \-gamma , -.BR \-rgamma , -and -.B \-bgamma -options. -.TP 8 -.B \-ignoreABI -The -.B __xservername__ -server checks the ABI revision levels of each module that it loads. It -will normally refuse to load modules with ABI revisions that are newer -than the server's. This is because such modules might use interfaces -that the server does not have. When this option is specified, mismatches -like this are downgraded from fatal errors to warnings. This option -should be used with care. -.TP 8 -.B \-isolateDevice \fIbus\-id\fP -Restrict device resets to the device at -.IR bus\-id . -The -.I bus\-id -string has the form -.IB bustype : bus : device : function -(e.g., \(oqPCI:1:0:0\(cq). -At present, only isolation of PCI devices is supported; i.e., this option -is ignored if -.I bustype -is anything other than \(oqPCI\(cq. -.TP 8 -.B \-keeptty -Prevent the server from detaching its initial controlling terminal. -This option is only useful when debugging the server. Not all platforms -support (or can use) this option. -.TP 8 -.BI \-keyboard " keyboard-name" -Use the __xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file -.B InputDevice -section called -.I keyboard-name -as the core keyboard. This option is ignored when the -.B Layout -section specifies a core keyboard. In the absence of both a Layout -section and this option, the first relevant -.B InputDevice -section is used for the core keyboard. -.TP 8 -.BI \-layout " layout-name" -Use the __xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file -.B Layout -section called -.IR layout-name . -By default the first -.B Layout -section is used. -.TP 8 -.BI \-logfile " filename" -Use the file called -.I filename -as the -.B __xservername__ -server log file. The default log file is -.BI __logdir__/__xservername__. n .log -on most platforms, where -.I n -is the display number of the -.B __xservername__ -server. The default may be in a different directory on some platforms. -This option is only available when the server is run as root (i.e, with -real-uid 0). -.TP 8 -.BR \-logverbose " [\fIn\fP]" -Sets the verbosity level for information printed to the -.B __xservername__ -server log file. If the -.I n -value isn't supplied, each occurrence of this option increments the log -file verbosity level. When the -.I n -value is supplied, the log file verbosity level is set to that value. -The default log file verbosity level is 3. -.TP 8 -.BI \-modulepath " searchpath" -Set the module search path to -.IR searchpath . -.I searchpath -is a comma separated list of directories to search for -.B __xservername__ -server modules. This option is only available when the server is run -as root (i.e, with real-uid 0). -.TP 8 -.B \-nosilk -Disable Silken Mouse support. -.TP 8 -.B \-pixmap24 -Set the internal pixmap format for depth 24 pixmaps to 24 bits per pixel. -The default is usually 32 bits per pixel. There is normally little -reason to use this option. Some client applications don't like this -pixmap format, even though it is a perfectly legal format. This is -equivalent to the -.B Pixmap -__xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file option. -.TP 8 -.B \-pixmap32 -Set the internal pixmap format for depth 24 pixmaps to 32 bits per pixel. -This is usually the default. This is equivalent to the -.B Pixmap -__xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file option. -.TP 8 -.BI \-pointer " pointer-name" -Use the __xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file -.B InputDevice -section called -.I pointer-name -as the core pointer. This option is ignored when the -.B Layout -section specifies a core pointer. In the absence of both a Layout -section and this option, the first relevant -.B InputDevice -section is used for the core pointer. -.TP 8 -.B \-quiet -Suppress most informational messages at startup. The verbosity level -is set to zero. -.TP 8 -.BI \-rgamma " value" -Set the red gamma correction. -.I value -must be between 0.1 and 10. The default is 1.0. Not all drivers support -this. See also the -.BR \-gamma , -.BR \-bgamma , -and -.B \-ggamma -options. -.TP 8 -.BI \-screen " screen-name" -Use the __xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file -.B Screen -section called -.IR screen-name . -By default the screens referenced by the default -.B Layout -section are used, or the first -.B Screen -section when there are no -.B Layout -sections. -.TP 8 -.B \-showconfig -This is the same as the -.B \-version -option, and is included for compatibility reasons. It may be removed -in a future release, so the -.B \-version -option should be used instead. -.TP 8 -.B \-showDefaultModulePath -Print out the default module path the server was compiled with. -.TP 8 -.B \-showDefaultLibPath -Print out the path libraries should be installed to. -.TP 8 -.B \-showopts -For each driver module installed, print out the list of options and their -argument types. -.TP 8 -.BI \-weight " nnn" -Set RGB weighting at 16 bpp. The default is 565. This applies only to -those drivers which support 16 bpp. -.TP 8 -.BR \-verbose " [\fIn\fP]" -Sets the verbosity level for information printed on stderr. If the -.I n -value isn't supplied, each occurrence of this option increments the -verbosity level. When the -.I n -value is supplied, the verbosity level is set to that value. The default -verbosity level is 0. -.TP 8 -.B \-version -Print out the server version, patchlevel, release date, the operating -system/platform it was built on, and whether it includes module loader -support. -.SH "KEYBOARD" -.PP -The -.B __xservername__ -server is normally configured to recognize various special combinations -of key presses that instruct the server to perform some action, rather -than just sending the key press event to a client application. These actions -depend on the XKB keymap loaded by a particular keyboard device and may or -may not be available on a given configuration. -.PP -The following key combinations are commonly part of the default XKEYBOARD -keymap. -.TP 8 -.B Ctrl+Alt+Backspace -Immediately kills the server -- no questions asked. It can be disabled by -setting the -.B DontZap -__xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file option to a TRUE value. -.PP -.RS 8 -It should be noted that zapping is triggered by the -.B Terminate_Server -action in the keyboard map. This action is not part of the default keymaps -but can be enabled with the XKB option -.B \*qterminate:ctrl_alt_bksp\*q. -.RE -.TP 8 -.B Ctrl+Alt+Keypad-Plus -Change video mode to next one specified in the configuration file. -This can be disabled with the -.B DontZoom -__xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file option. -.TP 8 -.B Ctrl+Alt+Keypad-Minus -Change video mode to previous one specified in the configuration file. -This can be disabled with the -.B DontZoom -__xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file option. -.TP 8 -.B Ctrl+Alt+F1...F12 -For systems with virtual terminal support, these keystroke -combinations are used to switch to virtual terminals 1 through 12, -respectively. This can be disabled with the -.B DontVTSwitch -__xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) file option. -.SH CONFIGURATION -.B __xservername__ -typically uses a configuration file called -.B __xconfigfile__ -and configuration files with the suffix -.I .conf -in a directory called -.B __xconfigdir__ -for its initial setup. -Refer to the __xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) manual page for information -about the format of this file. -.PP -.B __xservername__ -has a mechanism for automatically generating a built-in configuration -at run-time when no -.B __xconfigfile__ -file or -.B __xconfigdir__ -files are present. The current version of this automatic configuration -mechanism works in two ways. -.PP -The first is via enhancements that have made many components of the -.B __xconfigfile__ -file optional. This means that information that can be probed or -reasonably deduced doesn't need to be specified explicitly, greatly -reducing the amount of built-in configuration information that needs to -be generated at run-time. -.PP -The second is to have "safe" fallbacks for most configuration information. -This maximises the likelihood that the -.B __xservername__ -server will start up in some usable configuration even when information -about the specific hardware is not available. -.PP -The automatic configuration support for __xservername__ is work in progress. -It is currently aimed at the most popular hardware and software platforms -supported by __xservername__. Enhancements are planned for future releases. -.SH FILES -The -.B __xservername__ -server config files can be found in a range of locations. These are -documented fully in the __xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) manual page. The -most commonly used locations are shown here. -.TP 30 -.B /etc/X11/__xconfigfile__ -Server configuration file. -.TP 30 -.B /etc/X11/__xconfigfile__-4 -Server configuration file. -.TP 30 -.B /etc/__xconfigfile__ -Server configuration file. -.TP 30 -.B __projectroot__/etc/__xconfigfile__ -Server configuration file. -.TP 30 -.B __projectroot__/lib/X11/__xconfigfile__ -Server configuration file. -.TP 30 -.B /etc/X11/__xconfigdir__ -Server configuration directory. -.TP 30 -.B /etc/X11/__xconfigdir__-4 -Server configuration directory. -.TP 30 -.B /etc/__xconfigdir__ -Server configuration directory. -.TP 30 -.B __projectroot__/etc/__xconfigdir__ -Server configuration directory. -.TP 30 -.B __projectroot__/lib/X11/__xconfigdir__ -Server configuration directory. -.TP 30 -.BI __logdir__/__xservername__. n .log -Server log file for display -.IR n . -.TP 30 -.B __projectroot__/bin/\(** -Client binaries. -.TP 30 -.B __projectroot__/include/\(** -Header files. -.TP 30 -.B __projectroot__/lib/\(** -Libraries. -.TP 30 -.B __datadir__/fonts/X11/\(** -Fonts. -.TP 30 -.B __projectroot__/share/X11/XErrorDB -Client error message database. -.TP 30 -.B __projectroot__/lib/X11/app-defaults/\(** -Client resource specifications. -.TP 30 -.B __mandir__/man?/\(** -Manual pages. -.TP 30 -.BI /etc/X n .hosts -Initial access control list for display -.IR n . -.SH "SEE ALSO" -X(__miscmansuffix__), Xserver(__appmansuffix__), xdm(__appmansuffix__), xinit(__appmansuffix__), -__xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__), xvidtune(__appmansuffix__), -apm(__drivermansuffix__), -ati(__drivermansuffix__), -chips(__drivermansuffix__), -cirrus(__drivermansuffix__), -cyrix(__drivermansuffix__), -fbdev(__drivermansuffix__), -glide(__drivermansuffix__), -glint(__drivermansuffix__), -i128(__drivermansuffix__), -i740(__drivermansuffix__), -imstt(__drivermansuffix__), -intel(__drivermansuffix__), -mga(__drivermansuffix__), -neomagic(__drivermansuffix__), -nsc(__drivermansuffix__), -nv(__drivermansuffix__), -openchrome (__drivermansuffix__), -r128(__drivermansuffix__), -rendition(__drivermansuffix__), -s3virge(__drivermansuffix__), -siliconmotion(__drivermansuffix__), -sis(__drivermansuffix__), -sunbw2(__drivermansuffix__), -suncg14(__drivermansuffix__), -suncg3(__drivermansuffix__), -suncg6(__drivermansuffix__), -sunffb(__drivermansuffix__), -sunleo(__drivermansuffix__), -suntcx(__drivermansuffix__), -tdfx(__drivermansuffix__), -tga(__drivermansuffix__), -trident(__drivermansuffix__), -tseng(__drivermansuffix__), -v4l(__drivermansuffix__), -vesa(__drivermansuffix__), -vmware(__drivermansuffix__), -.br -Web site -.IR <http://www.x.org> . - -.SH AUTHORS -__xservername__ has many contributors world wide.
