Configuring Multiple Frame Buffers
Through the Xservers File
To run more than one frame buffer you must modify your
/etc/dt/config/Xservers
file. The Sun XVR-1200 graphics accelerator device
name is
jfb
(for example,
jfb0
and
jfb1
for two Sun XVR-1200 graphics
accelerator devices). To do this:
1. Become superuser and open the
/etc/dt/config/Xservers
file.
If the
/etc/dt/config/Xservers
file does not exist, create the
/etc/dt/config
directory and copy the
Xservers
file from
/usr/dt/config/Xservers
to
/etc/dt/config.
#
cd /etc/dt/config
# vi + Xservers
# mkdir -p /etc/dt/config
#
cp
/usr/dt/config/Xservers /etc
/dt/config
# cd /etc/dt/config
# vi + Xservers
