passing arguments to Xdec

Hi,

In an effort to troubleshoot a problem we are having with X services on an
XP1000 running 5.0A, I am trying to pass command line arguments to Xdec.
Our Xservers file (which is a sym link to Xservers.con) contains a line
that refers to /usr/bin/X11/X which is a sym link to Xdec . The man page
for Xdec (as well as its in-line help) indicates that there are a number of
command line parameters that can be specified; I am interested in setting
-ld, -ls, and -lf . Where can these be added? I notice that Linux allows
them to be set in its Xservers file following the full path specification
/usr/X11R6/bin/X . But I'm not sure that it operates that way in Tru64: I
added these parameters in our Xservers file, but I couldn't see them with
the ps command (only the -auth parameter was shown) -- plus our problem
still remained (which I admit isn't conclusive for the argument passing
problem...).

Thanks,
Peyton
