Post-installation instructions for X.Org on OpenBSD/sparc --------------------------------------------------------- 1. Seting up X on sparc is easy: Typical Xorg use on Sun sparc-based machines requires no configuration file. However, multi-headed configurations will require a configuration file. Create /etc/X11/xorg.conf, with these two sections for each framebuffer: Section "Device" Identifier "Wsdisplay0" Driver "wsfb" Option "device" "/dev/ttyC0" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Wsdisplay0" EndSection This example is for the first screen. For the others, increment the "Wsdisplay" and "Screen" numbers, and change the device to /dev/ttyD0 for the second display, /dev/ttyE0 for the third, and so on. Then, you'll need to create a ServerLayout section describing all the displays and their location relative to the first, as in: Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "wsfb" Screen 0 "Screen0" Screen 1 "Screen1" RightOf "Screen0" EndSection See xorg.conf(5) for more options. 2. Start either xdm(1) or startx(1). a. Start xdm(1), the X display manager by activating the xdm_flags option in /etc/rc.conf(8) or /etc/rc.conf.local(8). It is necessary to disable /dev/console in /etc/ttys, change the 'status' of /dev/console to 'off'. b. Start startx(1) from a console shell. It is the X script that starts the X server and a few X applications, including a window manager. problem_blurb $OpenBSD: README.sparc,v 1.3 2009/05/20 18:26:35 miod Exp $
