Raptor Drivers for HP-UX Installation and Reference Manual
4-4
4.3.1.2 STARSMODE Variable
The bit-depth of the Raptor card can be set using the
STARSMODE
environment variable. This variable should be set before starting up
the X server.
For example, set the bit-depth of the Raptor card to 8+24
#setenv STA8+24
To set the bit-depth of the Raptor card to 8+8
#setenv STA8+8
Other bit-depths can be selected in a similar manner.
In a multi-screen configuration of Raptor cards, this method will set
the bit-depth of all the screens to the same value.
NOTE:
In the case when both the methods to set bit-depth are used,
the
STARSMODE
variable takes precedence over the settings in the
TSIScreenConfig
file.
4.3.2 Setting the Resolution
The resolution of the Raptor 2000 and Raptor 2100T cards is fixed at
2048x2048. The resolution of the Raptor 2500T is configured at the
time of manufacture to be either 2560x2048 or 2048x2048. The
Raptor 1100T supports multiple resolutions.
The resolution of the Raptor 1100T card can be changed by editing
the config file
/var/X11/TSIScreenConfig
. By default, the
resolution of this card is set to 1920x1080. Each row in the config
file corresponds to a Raptor card that is identified by its device name.
The fields in each row are separated by spaces. The resfile field
specifies the file that contains a list of available resolutions and the
corresponding timing numbers. Normally, this file is called
trzresinfo
and is located in
/var/X11
. The cached pixmap field
is used for debugging purposes only and should always be set to 1.
