___________________________ Note ____________________________

These are device dependent X server options and not available for ALL graphics options. Please refer to Table 3–1 for supported Resolutions and Refresh Rates.

Both the Width and Height should be specified in the "-screen" option and not just the Width. On some X server graphics devices setting ONLY the Width will cause the X server to fail.

The [screen] number need not be specified if only one screen exists or if the user wants all screens to use the same values. The [screen] value is generally '0' as shown in the example below.

Example:

-screen0 1280x1024

^

_ [screen] value

Anything added after the "-I" option will be ignored by the X server and passed on to the DDX, Device Dependent X layer of the server. The "-screen" and or "- vsync" option(s) should precede the "-I" option.
