Hi there. I was pointed to this conference from the CDE conference. Please don't point me back. I was told I could find a Xserver type engineer in here who could give me a hand with this problem. One of my customers is inquiring about the BlackPixel and WhitePixel color index in the Xserver. He is running a 3rd party product that displays properly on a NCD Xterminal that has the default BlackPixel value set to 1 and the WhitePixel set to 0. Dunix v4.0b - CDE On his Alphastation 255, the BlackPixel value is 0 and the WhitePixel value is 1. He wants to change this on the Alphastation so that BlackPixel is 1 and WhitePixel is 0. I had him create the file /etc/dt/config/Xservers, and specify the following: :0 Local local@console /usr/bin/X11/X :0 -bp white -wp black But after restarting CDE it did not honor the change. I also tried: :0 Local local@console /usr/bin/X11/X :0 -bp 1 -wp 0 This did not work either. Is there anyway possible for him to change this? I advised him that his 3rd party application probably is in error for keying on these values but it is falling to deaf ears it seems. Thanks, Rick Retterer Workstation/Graphics Support Alpharetta, Ga. DTN-343-0367

Well, we've looked and none of our DDXs support the -bp and -wp command line options. We'll enter a QAR here and get it fixed (or remove the options if there is a reason none support it) in a future release. Until then, the only option for the customer is going to be to push for the app to be fixed. Irene | |||||
