Anybody got a clue...? Yes, there simply is no gfx support on the i2000 for HP-UX, only for Linux/WIN64. HP-UX doesn't support the AGP port correctly so even if You use a supported gfx card You never will get any graphics on the i2000. When 11.20 (11i v1.5) was current HP promised to fix that with 11.22 (11i v1.6) but they didn't... If You want gfx You need one of the Itanium2 workstations... Benjamin |

We were under the impression that an X server could - and would - be built for the I2000, either by HP or by somebody else...
