INVOKING X WINDOWS
4.1 Overview
There are several ways to invoke X Windows on your system:
•
startx
•
xinit
•
Common Desktop Environment (CDE)
This section assumes the use of the csh environment. If you prefer
a different shell, make the appropriate changes from the examples.
All of the examples in this section, the device name /dev
/rapdlt0 is used. Your device name may differ, depending on
the instance number. Please refer to Section 3.3 for specific device
names.
4.2 Configuring X Windows
4.2.1 Single Screen Mode
Under HP-UX, the devices that X Windows will use are configured
in the file /etc/X11/X0screens. This file is used by the X Server
regardless of how it is invoked (e.g. startx, xinit, CDE, etc).
Edit the file /etc/X11/X0screens to configure display 0. For
display 1 you would edit /etc/X11/X1screens.
This section assumes that display 0 is to be configured. To run X
Windows on the Raptor card only, comment out /dev/crt in
/etc/X11/X0screens by placing a '#' at the beginning of that
line, and add the Raptor device by entering Screen
/dev/rapdlt0 on a new line:
#Screen /dev/crt
Screen /dev/rapdlt0
