Linux Settings
On target servers running Linux graphical interfaces, set the mouse acceleration to exactly 1 and
set threshold to exactly 1.
As mentioned above, please ensure that each target server running Linux is using a resolution
supported by USTIP at a standard VESA resolution and refresh rate. Each Linux target server
should also be set so the blanking times are within +/- 40% of VESA standard values.
To check for these parameters:
• Go to the Xfree86 Configuration file XF86Config
set threshold to exactly 1.

To check for these parameters:
• Go to the Xfree86 Configuration file XF86Config
• Using a text editor, disable all non-USTIP supported resolutions
• Disable the virtual desktop feature, which is not supported by USTIP
• Disable the virtual desktop feature, which is not supported by USTIP
• Check blanking times (+/- 40% of VESA standard).
• Restart computer
• Restart computer
Note: In many Linux graphical environments, the command CTRL+ALT+ + [plus sign key] will
change the video resolution, scrolling through all available resolutions that remain enabled in
the XF86Config file.

Sun Solaris Settings
All target servers must be configured to one of the display resolutions supported by USTIP. The most
popular supported resolutions for Sun machines are:
popular supported resolutions for Sun machines are:
• 1024x768@60Hz
• 1024x768@70Hz
• 1024x768@75Hz
• 1024x768@85Hz
• 1152x900@66Hz
• 1152x900@76Hz
• 1152x900@66Hz
• 1152x900@76Hz
• 1280x1024@60Hz
Target servers running the Solaris operating system must output VGA video (H-and-V sync, not
composite sync). To change your Sun video card output from composite sync to the non-default
VGA output, first issue the Stop+A command to drop to bootprom mode. Then, issue the
command:

to change the output resolution. Issue the “boot” command to reboot the server.
Alternatively, you may contact your Raritan representative to purchase a video output adapter.
13W3 Suns with composite sync output require APSSUN II Raritan guardian for use with USTIP.
HD15 Suns with composite sync output require 1396C Raritan converter to convert from HD15
to 13W3 and an APSSUN II Raritan guardian converter to support composite sync. HD15 Suns
with separate sync output require an APKMSUN Raritan guardian for use with USTIP.
