Restart X Server Utility (Service Mmtserv) - Barco Argus X Terminal User Manual

4.8.4 Restart X server utility (service mmtserv)

The service mmtserv utility can be used to restart the X server. By means of the options the color mode can be
determined. If the utility is called without option, the X server settings that were assigned in the X.11 configura-
tion are applied. Thus the utility enables to change the color mode without the necessity to run through the X.11
configuration. The following options are available:
option
pseudo
true
direct
true32
direct32
To restart the X server in TrueColor mode, with 32 bpp color depth the following input would be necessary:
service mmtserv true32
Alternatively the X server can by restarted by means of the entries in the work menu of the window manager,
please refer to section 4.5 Window manager.
Please keep in mind that a higher color depth requires also a higher bandwidth for graphic
data.
In addition, changing the color mode of the X server might change the color mode of video
or RGB and lead therefore also to an increase in required bandwidth for video, please refer
to section
server color mode and to section
and RGB.
Both effects might lead to a loss of performance!
