Frame Buffer Depth
Creator 3D
When you change the display resolution, it sometimes sets itself up so that the 8-bit plane is the one that applications use by default. To fix it:
Solaris 8:
# ffbconfig -deflinear true -g 1.1
- if you have an "older" Creator 3D, the -g 1.1 may not be necessary. To test if you have an old or new Creator 3D card:
# /usr/sbin/ffbconfig -propt
If the output of this command contains the phrase "gamma correction" then you have the new card.
Solaris 9:
- copy /usr/dt/config/Xservers to /etc/dt/config/Xservers; make the control line like:
:0 Local local_uid@console root /usr/openwin/bin/Xsun :0 -nobanner -defdepth 24
