NAME

       X - X Window System display server dispatcher

SYNOPSIS

       X [ option ...]

DESCRIPTION
:
       Hewlett-Packard	supports  two  X  servers on HP-UX platforms, the Xhp X server which supports HP VISUALIZE graphics devices and the Xf86 X
       server which supports all other graphics devices.  These X servers are delivered as /usr/bin/X11/Xhp and /usr/bin/X11/Xf86.

       The X dispatcher determines which X server to launch based on the available graphics devices.  The control file /etc/X11/Xstart can provide
       additional  guidance to the X dispatcher.  The control file allows the user to specify which X server to start for given display connection
       numbers. The only X servers supported by the X dispatcher are Xhp, Xf86 and Xvfb.  If no Xstart	file  exists,  the  dispatcher	loads  the
       appropriate  X server for the graphics device in the system.  HP-UX does not deliver the /etc/X11/Xstart file.  This file can be created by
       using the SAM/SMH utility.

OPTIONS

       If the X dispatcher is invoked with no arguments, the display connection is assumed to be :0.  The X dispatcher checks for display  connec-
       tion  options  and, if found, uses that display connection number when it checks the Xstart file.  All other options are passed on to the X
       server when it is started and it is the X server's responsibility to validate these options.  Not all options may be supported  on  both  X
       servers; refer to Xhp(1) and Xf86(1) to verify supported options for each X server.

RETURN VALUE

       None

Xstart EXAMPLES
       The control file syntax is the X server to start followed by the display connection number.  Valid entries take the form of:

       Xhp :0				       Start the Xhp X server on display connection 0

       Xf86 :10 			       Start the Xf86 X server on display 10

       /usr/bin/X11/Xhp :5		       Start the Xhp X server on display connection 5

       /usr/bin/X11/Xvfb :7		       Start the X Virtual Framebuffer server on display connection 7

FILES

       /etc/X11/Xstart			       Dispatcher control file.

       /var/X11/Xserver/logs/Xstartup.N.log    X dispatcher log file for display N.
