Displaying Graphics on a Remote X Host

 

With the Model 742i, y ou can run HP VUE or the X Windo w System, but you

 

cannot directly displa y them. However, you can use a remote computer whic h

 

has graphical capability to displa y the system running on the Model 742i and

3

interact with it. This is done b y setting the DISPLAY environment variable on

the Model 742i. DISPLAY sets the host, displa y number, and screen number to

 

 

which a system sends bitmapped output for clien ts.

 

For example, if the Model 742i is called server

 

system , your remote system is

 

 

 

xhost

 

system , and the program running on the Model 742i is called xwijit ,

 

 

 

enter the following on y our remote X host system to get it to displa y the Model

 

742i bits:

 

 

 

 

 

 

xhost + server

 

 

system

This enables the Mo del 742i to recognize the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

remote X host.

 

rlogin server

 

 

system

Log in on the Model 742i.

 

 

 

 

DISPLAY= xhost

 

 

system:0.0

On the Model 742i, set the DISPLAY variable so

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

that it will display on your r emote X system.

 

export DISPLAY

Export the variable

 

xwijit

 

 

Run the program on the Model 742i
