1. Using the fbconfig command, set the Sun XVR-100 to 8+24-bit color depth.
Note – The command fbconfig -dev pfb0 -fake8 disable turns off 8+24-bit
color depth and returns to the previous color depth.
2. Log out, then log back in for the change to take effect.
Note – 8-bit color depth performance is slower in 8+24-bit color depth mode.
11.5.5 Installing a PCI Card
1. Power off the system, open and position the chassis.
Refer to:
■ “Powering Off the Workstation” on page 10-4
■ “Removing the Access Panel” on page 10-12
■ “Positioning the Chassis” on page 10-16
2. Locate the available PCI card slots.
Certain PCI cards must be installed in specific PCI card slots in the motherboard.
You might have to remove a second chassis filler panel for some PCI cards that use
two PCI card slots. Locate the corresponding chassis filler panel slot and PCI card
slot.
Note – If you are installing an additional PCI card, check the PCI card
documentation to make sure you install the PCI card into an appropriate PCI card
slot. See “General PCI Card Guidelines” on page 11-33.
3. Squeeze the inside tabs together and swing the PCI card support out.
See FIGURE 11-37.
