Man Pages

The Sun XVR-4000 graphics accelerator man pages describe how you can query and
set frame buffer attributes such as screen resolutions and visual configurations.

Use the

fbconfig(1M)

man page for configuring all Sun graphics accelerators.

SUNWzulu_config(1M)

contains Sun XVR-4000 device-specific configuration

information.

Use the

fbconfig
