4 Invoking the X Server
4.1 Overview
There are several ways to invoke the X server on your system:
• startx script provided in
/usr/X11R6/bin
• xinit
• xdm
This section assumes the use of the
csh
environment. If you
prefer a different shell, make the appropriate changes to the
examples.
prompt% setenv X11R6HOME /usr/X11R6
prompt% setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH \
$X11R6HOME/lib
prompt% set path=($X11R6HOME/bin $path)
All of the options specific to the Tech Source Raptor graphics
accelerators are set through the option field in the
Device
section
of the xorg.conf file. No command-line options are necessary
when using
startx
,
xinit
or
xdm
to start the X server. Refer to
Chapter 3 for instructions on how to properly configure the
xorg.conf files.
NOTE: For changes to take effect, the Xserver must be restarted
after modifications are made to the X configuration file.
NOTE: For all these methods, there are some
environment variables that must be set. These variables
can be set in your .
cshrc
file.
