starting the X Server from the command line
Command line options for the X Server are described in Xf86(1).
mapping options from the previous hp X Server to the XF86 hp X Server
The purpose of this section is to provide the user who is familiar with the X* screens files or the
HP X Server a method of setting the equivalent options in the XF86Config file in the current
release of the XF86 HP X Server. Only those options that are currently implemented in the release
are documented here.
defaultVisual option
The default visual in the Xf86 HP X server can be implicitly set by changing the depth of the
framebuffer. Depth 8 implies the PseudoColor visual and Depth 24 implies the TrueColor visual.
No other visuals are supported. The following example demonstrates how this would be done
in the X*screens file and how it would be done in the XF86Config file. The example sets the
default visual class to TrueColor.

Screen /dev/crt
