If you want to make changes to the graphical user interface X.11, which are not supported by the configuration
tools introduced in section

with a number of options.
On T

ORM
A there are manual pages about the
Xserver
available. For reading these man pages enter
man
Xserver
in the command line:
#
man Xserver
Additional options are listed in the table below:
-no_cursor_on_video
The cursor becomes invisible, as long as it is moved over videos.
-ddc_all
DDC detection is asked for every graphic channel. Each graphic channel
needs up to 6 seconds for detection. Therefore this should not be used as
a standard, see section
.
-no_ddc
DDC detection is not done at all.
-DRGB_888
All RGB sources are digitized and transferred to the O
MNI
S
CALER
with 24
bpp (RGB 8:8:8) instead of the default setting with 16 bpp (RGB 5:6:5).
Restarting the X server without this option resets the default settings.
-new_video_layout
Configures in a distributed system to each video adapter its own video
channel. For usage of logical video channels please refer to section
Configuring a distributed system
and
6.1.6 Advanced configuration of TransForm A
.

Sets the noise reduction level for all video clients. Integer values in the
range from

can be specified. Optimal noise reduction has to con-
sider the content of the displayed source.

value
If the option is not set, the default value of

The file MMTServerConfig contains already lines inserted automatically by the configuration
script. Do not change these entries manually.
