configuring an X Server on HP-UX
The Device keyword specifies which Device section is used for this screen. This is what binds a
specific graphics card to a screen. The DeviceID must match the Identifier of a Device section in
the configuration file.
The
Monitor keyword specifies which Monitor section is used for this screen. This is what binds
a specific monitor to the screen. The MonitorID must match the
Identifier of a
Monitor
section
in the configuration file.
The DefaultDepth keyword specifies which color depth the server should use by default. The
-depth
command line option can be used to override this. If neither is specified, the default
depth is driver specific, but in most cases is 8.
Various Option flags may be specified in the Screen section. Some are driver specific and are
described in the driver documentation. Driver-independent options are described here. This
information is from the XF86Config manual page.

Description
Accel
NA
Enables XAA (X Acceleration Architecture), a
mechanism that makes video cards' 2D
hardware acceleration available to the Xserver.
This option is on by default. There are many
options to disable specific accelerated
operations, listed below. Note that disabling an
operation has no effect if the operation is not
accelerated (whether due to lack of support in
the hardware or in the driver).
XaaNoCPUToScreenColor
ExpandFill
NA
Disables accelerated rectangular expansion bits
from source patterns stored in system memory
(using a memory-mapped aperture).
XaaNoColor8x8PatternFillRect
NA
Disables accelerated fills of a rectangular region
with a full-color pattern.
XaaNoColor8x8PatternFillTrap
NA
Disables accelerated fills of a trapezoidal region
with a full-color pattern.
XaaNoDashedBresenhamLine
NA
Disables accelerated dashed Bresenham line
draws.
XaaNoDashedTwoPointLine
NA
Disables accelerated dashed lines drawn
between two arbitrary points.
XaaNoImageWriteRect
NA
Disables accelerated transfers of full-color
rectangular patterns from system memory to
video memory (using a memory-mapped
aperture).
XaaNoMono8x8PatternFillRect
NA
Disables accelerated fills of a rectangular region
with a monochrome pattern.
