Thanks David. That was spot-on. I've created the Xvfb instance and enabled it.
However, the service goes into maintenance with these errors:
[ Jan 30 10:42:53 Enabled. ]
[ Jan 30 10:42:53 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/x11-server -d 0 -c
Xvfb start") ]
[ Jan 30 10:42:53 Method "start" exited with status 0 ]
/dev/fb: No such file or directory
/dev/fb: No such file or directory
Graphics Adapter device /dev/fb is of unknown type
Fatal server error:
InitOutput: Error loading module for /dev/fb
[ Jan 30 10:42:58 Stopping because all processes in service exited. ]
[ Jan 30 10:42:58 Executing stop method (:kill) ]
I figured it's because it's trying to start Xvfb using diplay 0. I didn't want
to do this anyway; I wanted to use display 5 and have added an entry in
/usr/openwin/server/etc/OWconfig as follows:
# X Display 5
class="XDISPLAY" name="5"
coreKeyboard="NKBD" corePointer="NMOUSE"
dev5="vfb";
My question is, how do I make Xvfb use display 5 instead of display 0? The
error messages above tells me it has something to do with the start method;
i.e. change -d 0 to -d 5, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to do
it.
Thanks again,
Ariel
