Setup guide

■ If you are installing the application for the first time, the init.cfg file appears in a text editor.
■ If you are upgrading the application, the old (previous) and new init.cfg files appear beside each
other in an xxdiff window. The left panel displays the old init.cfg file. The right panel displays the
new init.cfg that is installed with your application. The vertical bar on the right side indicates where
differences exist between the two panels.

recommended to verify at least the following keywords to make sure they reflect your hardware
configuration.

■ If you are in xxdiff, each difference between the old and the new init.cfg files is highlighted. Click
the correct value for each keyword, regardless of whether it is in the left or right panel. Make sure
you select a value for each highlighted difference. Then open the File menu and choose Save as
Right. After the file is saved, close xxdiff.
13 If any changes are detected in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, you are prompted to configure this file:
■ To keep the old configuration settings, when the file appears in the xxdiff editor, in the Global menu,
choose Select Left, and then, in the File menu, choose Save as Right. If prompted to overwrite, click
OK.
■ To use the new configuration file without adding the settings from the old configuration file, just
close the program.
