startx

A front-end to xinit that provides a nice user interface for running a single session of the X Window System. More information: https://x.org/releases/X11R7.5/doc/man/man1/startx.1.html.

startx

  • Start an X session with a predefined depth value:

startx -- -depth {{value}}

  • Start an X session with a predefined dpi value:
