NAME

Xpw − Pixelworks Smart Board Interface server for X11

SYNOPSIS

Xpw [ option ] ...

DESCRIPTION

Xpw is the server for INTER­ACTIVE X11 running on an INTER­ACTIVE UNIX Operating System Version 2.2 or later, using the Pixelworks Clipper Graphics Series controller.  Xpw operates on a 386- or 486-based ISA or EISA computer.  It is normally invoked by a program such as xinit(1) or by the INTER­ACTIVE Easy Windows Environment. 

OPTIONS

−config configuration file
Specifies an alternate configuration file to be used, instead of /usr/lib/X11/Xconfig. 

Other options are described under Xserver(1).

CONFIGURATION

Xpw requires the Type field in the configuration file (Xconfig(5)) to be the string PW-CG.  The Info field is presently used to specify the width and height of the attached monitor.  The format of this field is "WIDTHxHEIGHT" in whole inches.  The Info field may be left as an empty string.  In this case the width is assumed to be 12 inches and the height is assumed to be 9 inches.  This means that the Info field for a 12-inch x 9-inch screen would be 12x9.  The Devname field in the configuration file must presently be set to /dev/pw0. 

display PW-CG "12x9" 0.0 /dev/pw0

or

display PW-CG ""    0.0 /dev/pw0

An example of a complete configuration entry for the console using a Logitech serial mouse on /dev/tty00 would be:

display PW-CG 12x9 0.0 /dev/pw0
keyboard AT 101 0.0 /dev/console:/dev/vt%02d
mouse LOGI-S "1200 3" 0.0 /dev/tty00

FILES

/usr/lib/X11/Xconfig
server device configuration file

/dev/pw0 pw device entry
