Additional Command Line Options

The X-Window driver may be launched with
the following command line attachments.
-class Class information of all active windows
is shown.
-debug Reports debug information.
-dialsingle Sends all LPFK and Dialbox
events separately.
-disableinit Turns off the X-Window driver
in the /etc/inittab file. An X-Window driver
launched from /etc/inittab is terminated
immediately.
-enableinit Relaunches the X-Window driver
from the /etc/inittab file.
-fastinit Causes the X-Window driver to
initialize faster. Use of this option is NOT
recommended because the view of the panel
can be changed.

3D cube can be moved in six degrees of
freedom.
-grab The 2D mouse cursor is blocked if the
Magellan/SPACE MOUSE is active.
-hidemcc Hides the MCC so that it is no
longer usable. (The Quit button in the MCC
and the -nomcc option have the same effect.)
-inittab Informs the X-Window driver that it
was started from the /etc/inittab .
-installlpfk Installs the driver necessary for
the LPFK simulation.
-installmgl Installs the Magellan XIE driver.
(Only for SGI systems with IRIX 6.2 or higher.)
-irixmgl Activates the Magellan XIE driver
and functions within the MCC. (Only for SGI
systems with IRX 6.2 or higher.)
-new Set up new local configuration. The
configuration file *.ini is deleted and a new
configuration of the driver is asked for.
-new -global Set up new global
configuration.

of the X-Window HTML files and disables the
Help button in the MCC.

shows all X-Window driver data received.

-userdir or -userid Creates an xdriver.ini
file from the user's home directory (so that the
configuration file is user-dependent) and saves
the configuration file *.ini with the user-ID and
group-ID of the current user. For global
installation, the X-Window driver uses the
/usr/magellan/xdriver.ini configuration file as
the default. Note that this option will work only
if the X-Window driver has been launched
using - inittab .
-xstartup Informs the X-Window driver that
it was started from the Xstartup.

LPFK and Dialbox Driver Installation

In order to use the LPFK and dialbox
simulation modes, it may be necessary to
install additional operating system files. The
following systems normally require additional
files:
SGI (IRIX 5.3 or higher)
IBM (AIX 4.14 or higher)
For IBM systems, consult your AIX user's
manual. For SGI systems, follow the
installation procedure outlined below. Note
that LPFK and dialbox simulation modes are
not available on SUN.
1 Insert the IRIX 6.2 System CD-ROM 1 of
2.
2 Start the Software Manager. From the
System menu select Software Mana ger
or double-click on the CD-ROM icon on
your desktop.
