NAME

Xviking − Moniterm 21/91 Viking Smart Board Interface server for X11

SYNOPSIS

Xviking [ option ] ...

DESCRIPTION

Xviking is the server for INTER­ACTIVE X11 running on an INTER­ACTIVE UNIX System, Version 2.2 or later, using a Moniterm 21/91 Viking display adapter.  Xviking 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.  The display adapter board must be installed in a 16-bit slot because the Xviking server supports only this configuration. 

OPTIONS

Options are described under Xserver(1).

CONFIGURATION

Xviking requires the Type field in the configuration file (see Xconfig(5)) to be VIKING. 

The Info field is used to specify the resolution and the number of colors to be used and the width and height of the attached monitor.  The format of this field is “XPIXELSxYPIXELS colors WIDTHxHEIGHT.” The WIDTHxHEIGHT argument is specified in whole inches.  The colors argument is 256. 

For example, the following configuration file entry fully specifies display 0 to be a standard VIKING monochrome display 1280 pixels wide by 960 pixels high on a Sigma Designs 21-inch monitor:

display VIKING "1280x960 256 15x11" 0.0 /dev/console
keyboard AT 101 0.0 /dev/console:/dev/vt0%d
mouse LOGI-S "1200 3" 0.0 /dev/tty00

Currently, this is the only configuration supported.
