Subject: [gentoo-amd64] Passing options to X server
Date: Mon, 22 Aug 2005 16:38:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4309E352.3060103@anand.org> (raw)

Hi fellow Gentoo'ers,

I hope you don't mind me asking questions that might sound somewhat 
trivial to some of you.

I would like to pass the -br option to the X server when it starts, so 
that instead of displaying the default root weave pattern (which 
flickers and gives me a dizzy feeling), I get a solid black background 
in the root window.

Where exactly is the correct place to put this -br option, so that 
whether X is started by xdm, or manually with startx, this option is 
honoured?

Regards,

Anand
