Introduction  
Prerequisites  
P r er equ isites  
To support the HP VISUALIZE fxe graphics card, your workstation must meet the  
following prerequisites.  
Your workstation must be running one of the following revisions of the HP-UX  
operating system and have the appropriate Additional Core Enhancement (ACE)  
software bundle and Workstation Quality Pack installed:  
HP-UX revision 10.20 with the 9909 ACE software bundle (September 1999)  
HP-UX revision 11.00 with the 9911 ACE software bundle (November 1999)  
To verify that the proper ACE software bundle is installed on your workstation,  
perform the following steps:  
1. At a command prompt, type the following  
/usr/sbin/swlist -l bundle | grep ACE  
2. Scan the output for either of the following, as appropriate for your workstations  
HP-UX operating system revision:  
The HP-UX 10.20 B6193DA ACE software bundle with the description:  
Workstation ACE for HP-UX 10.20 (September 1999)  
This line indicates that the September 1999 ACE software bundle is installed.  
The HP-UX 11.00 B3782FA ACE software bundle with the description  
Workstation ACE for HP-UX 11.00 (November 1999)  
This line indicates that the November 1999 ACE software bundle is installed  
NOTE  
Because the ACE software bundles are updated occasionally, the ACE  
revision date that is listed in the output may be later than the one  
shown above. For example, if the ACE revision date listed for HP-UX  
10.20 is later than September 1999, then the proper ACE software  
bundle is installed on your workstation.  
If your workstation is not running HP-UX revision 10.20 or 11.0 with the appropriate

Introduction  
Prerequisites  
ACE software bundle, you need to update your operating system software before  
installing your graphics card. Contact your designated service representative for  
information on receiving an update. The ACE software bundles and Quality Packs  
are also available for downloading from the http:/ / software.hp.com website. The  
bundles will require approximately 133 Mb of disk space.  
Your workstation must have either an HP-supported monitor running at 75 Hz with  
a 1280 X 1024 resolution, or a full multi-mode color monitor. Monitors with Enhanced  
Video Connector (EVC), D-Sub connector, or 5 BNC connectors (RGB, vertical sync,  
horizontal sync) will work.  
The HP VISUALIZE fxe graphics card will not function with older HP monitor types  
that use a sync on green signal. This includes monitors such as the HP 1097A/B/ C/D,  
A2088A, and A2828A/B which only have 3 RGB connectors.  
See your workstation Owner's Guide for information on using the /opt/graphics/  
common/bin/setmon command to produce a list of supported monitors for your  
workstation, such as the following sample list:

To ensure that your workstation has the most up-to-date core operating system  
software, it is recommended that the most recent release of the Additional Core  
Enhancement (ACE) software bundle be installed. In addition, if your applications  
are based on HP's implementation of OpenGL runtime libraries, it is highly  
recommended that you update your HP implementation of the OpenGL runtime  
libraries from the September 1999 (or later) application release, or from the  
Hewlett-Packard web-site.  
If you do not have the CD-ROMs that contain the latest release of ACE and the  
Quality Pack or HP's implementation of the OpenGL runtime libraries, you can  
download them from the Hewlett-Packard website at this URL:  
For information on installing ACE and HP's implementation of the OpenGL runtime  
libraries, read the documents provided with those products.

Fixing Common Installation Problems  
Fixin g Com m on In sta lla tion P r oblem s  
This section describes how to fix some common problems you may encounter while  
installing the HP VISUALIZE fxe graphics card.  
Note that there are several system utilities that you can use to display or set the  
graphics configuration for your workstation:  
/opt/graphics/common/bin/graphinfoallows you to display the current  
graphics configuration and the graphics drivers that are being used.  
opt/graphics/common/bin/setmonallows you to reconfigure the monitor type.  
The Display menu of the HP-UX System Administration Manager (SAM) utility  
allows you to configure the X-server and set the monitor type  
Mon itor Does Not Disp la y  
NOTE  
Older monitors that have only 3 RGB connectors will not function with  
the HP VISUALIZE fxe graphics card because these monitors have no  
sync input except by sync on green. For more information, see the  
Prerequisites” section earlier in this manual.  
If the monitor is not displaying on powering up, the system console may not yet  
recognize the new graphics card. Perform the following steps to reconfigure the  
system console so that it recognizes the new card:  
1. Force the system to set the default console to a serial terminal on com1 by  
disconnecting the keyboard from the system and recycling power.  
2. Interrupt the boot up sequence and wait until the Boot Console Handler prompt is  
displayed, then move to the configuration menu by typing co.  
3. Display what graphics cards the system console recognizes by typing:  
mo graphics list  
4. Select the monitor type by typing:  
mo graphics(N) # type
