xserver

[navin]

Hello All,
Does the HP11.23 OS comes with default Xserver.How do i check that.
There is a software called xvrb - how do i check the existance if it on the server once it is installed - looks like it wont show up in swlist.please advice

I believe xvrb is the x vitual buffer. can be used as non-interactive psuedo x window for applications that demand it.

Are you looking for X-Window desktops, obsoleted CDE or Ximian Gnome is included with 11.23 ? They also function like xservers ?

I apologize if I am missing your question completely.

Hi Navin,

CDE is the default installed X-server for 11i v2.

# swlist -l product | grep -i cde

Here is my list for a 11.23 server.

File is under /usr/bin/X11, whoda thunk.

#> swlist -l file|grep -i xvfb
PHSS_36452.OEM-SERVER: /usr/bin/X11/Xvfb
Xserver.OEM-SERVER: /usr/bin/X11/Xvfb

it is available at hprc.external.hp.com. But you should have a username/passwd to login

I did see this in my server - that means- i have xvfb ?

# swlist -l file|grep -i xvfb
PHSS_32960.OEM-SERVER-PA: /usr/bin/X11/Xvfb
Xserver.OEM-SERVER-PA: /usr/bin/X11/Xvfb

Yes. This the X-window Virtual Frame Buffer.

It is in in memory xserver, the display goes to never never land.

Used mainly in the past because Oracle used to have some weird startup java applet that required a X-console/terminal that never did anything. Later versions of Oracle removed this issue.
