configuring X Windows on HP-UX (other graphics cards)
the XF86Config file
Option flags may be specified in the Display subsections. These may include driver-specific options or driver-independent options. The former are described in the driver-specific documentation. Some of the latter are described above in the section about the Screen section, and they may also be included here. However, options set in the Display subsection may be “overridden” in the Screen section.
“Monitor” section
The configuration file may have multiple Monitor sections. The Monitor section provides information about the specifications of the monitor, monitor-specific Options, and information about the video modes to use with the monitor. There must be at least one Monitor section, for the monitor being used. A Monitor section is considered “active” if it is referenced by an active Screen section. Monitor sections have the following format:
Section ìMonitorî
Identifier | ìMonitorIDî |
VendorName | ìVnameî |
ModelName | ìMnameî |
HorizSync | horizsync-range |
VertRefresh | vertrefresh-range |
DisplaySize | width height |
Gamma [gamma-value{red-gamma green-gamma blue-gamma}]
GammaAllLayers [on true 1]
EndSection
The Identifier entry specifies the unique name for this monitor.
The VendorName is an optional entry and is used to specify the monitor's manufacturer.
This ModelName is an optional entry that is used to specify the monitor model.
HorizSync gives the range(s) of horizontal sync frequencies supported by the monitor. horizsync-rangemay be a comma separated list of either discrete values or ranges of values. A range of values is two values separated by a dash. By default the values are in units of kHz. They may be specified in MHz or Hz if MHz or Hz is added to the end of the line.
