<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
|
|
|
Xvidtune is a client interface to the X server video mode
|
|
extension (XFree86-VidModeExtension).
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
When given one of the non-toolkit options, xvidtune provides
|
|
a command line interface to either print or switch the video mode.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
Without any options (or with only toolkit options) it
|
|
presents the user with various buttons and sliders that can be
|
|
used to interactively adjust existing video modes.
|
|
It will also print the settings in a format suitable for inclusion
|
|
in an xorg.conf file.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
Normally the Xorg X servers only allow changes to be made with
|
|
the XFree86-VidModeExtension from clients connected via a local
|
|
connection type.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
Note: The original mode settings can be restored by pressing the `R' key,
|
|
and this can be used to restore a stable screen in situations where the
|
|
screen becomes unreadable.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
The available buttons are:

</DL>
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
For some S3-based cards (964 and 968) the following are also available:
|
|
<DL COMPACT>
|
|
<DT id="12"><B>InvertVCLK</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Change the VCLK invert/non-invert state.
|
|
<DT id="13"><B>EarlySC</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Change the Early SC state. This affects screen wrapping.
|
|
</DL>
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
<PRE>
|
|
<B>BlankDelay1</B>
|
|
<B>BlankDelay2</B>
|
|
</PRE>
|
|
|
|
<DL COMPACT><DT id="14"><DD>
|
|
Set the blank delay values. This affects screen wrapping. Acceptable
|
|
values are in the range 0-7. The values may be incremented or decremented
|
|
with the `+' and `-' buttons, or by pressing the `+' or `-' keys in the
|
|
text field.
|
|
</DL>
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
For S3-864/868 based cards <I>InvertVCLK</I> and <I>BlankDelay1</I> may
|
|
be useful. For S3 Trio32/Trio64 cards only <I>InvertVCLK</I> is available.
|
|
At the moment there are no default settings available for these chips
|
|
in the video mode extension and thus this feature is disabled in xvidtune.
|
|
It can be enabled by setting any of the optional S3 commands in the
|
|
screen section of xorg.conf, e.g. using
|
|
<DL COMPACT><DT id="15"><DD>
|
|
<B>blank_delay </B><I>*</I> 0
|
|
|
|
</DL>
|
|
|
|
<A NAME="lbAE"> </A>
|
|
<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
|
|
|
|
<I>xvidtune</I> accepts the standard X Toolkit command line options as well
|
|
as the following:
|
|
<DL COMPACT>
|
|
<DT id="16"><B>-show</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Print the current settings to stdout in xorg.conf
|
|
"Modeline" format and exit.
|
|
<DT id="17"><B>-prev</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Switch the Xserver to the previous video mode.
|
|
<DT id="18"><B>-next</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Switch the Xserver to the next video mode.
|
|
<DT id="19"><B>-unlock</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Normally, <I>xvidtune</I> will disable the switching of video modes
|
|
via hot-keys while it is running. If for some reason the program
|
|
did not exit cleanly and they are still disabled, the program can
|
|
be re-run with this option to re-enable the mode switching key
|
|
combinations.

X Error handling, i.e. when the server does not allow xvidtune

clients to write new modes, could be better.
