The UGX- and AGX G

communication channel between a computer display and a host system it allows to automatically detect the best

is connected to display devices that support the DDC standard, information of this graphic device can be
requested as follows:
ddcinfo
No further options are required.
ddcinfo
can only be requested as long as the Xserver is not running.

Boot loader utility

a graphical menu appears to select the boot partition. See also section

to the directory:
cd /opt/MMT2686/config/
To switch on the graphical boot selection use:
/opt/MMT2686/config/bootgraph on
To switch it off use:
