HP's Graphics and Technical Computing bundle includes OpenGL, Starbase, HP PEXlib, and HP-PHIGS 3D APIs. HP's workstation graphics software support includes the run-time and programming environment packages for the 3D graphics APIs named above, plus additional software for technical computing environments. However, some functionality (notably accelerated 3D graphics) requires special hardware.
updated for September 2002HP-UX 11i version 1.0, as of the September 2002 release, supports the FireGL-UX graphics adapter card (A7789A). This new, high-end, full-featured 3D graphics card provides 3D support for OpenGL, similar to the Visualize-FX10 feature set, with the exception of multi-screen support, which FireGL-UX does not provide. It also provides, via the X server and Xlib, 2D features comparable to those of the Visualize-FX10. FireGL-UX is supported on these systems:

As of the June 2001 release, kernel parameters for CAE and EE Engineering workstation kernels will be optimized during the installation or update. If the system is installed or updated using Ignite-UX (IUX), this occurs automatically.[5] If you install or update manually, the optimization only occurs after you select one of the new engineering workstation kernel sets via SAM.
On factory Instant Ignition, IUX will install workstation systems with optimized default kernel parameter settings as long as the system has at least 64MB of RAM. The new defaults are optimized for general performance and are tailored appropriately for a 32-bit or 64-bit kernel. (The default parameter settings for each set are listed at the end of this section.) The larger maxdsiz limit for 64-bit installations now allows users to take advantage of the increased (approximately 3GB) process data space available with the June 2001 release.
Also on factory Instant Ignition, IUX automatically configures the kernel with the appropriate new CAE kernel parameter set:
CAE/ME/General Eng. Workstation 64-bit Kernel, or
CAE/ME/General Eng. Workstation 32-bit Kernel
Via SAM, you can apply tuned kernel parameter settings by selecting one of these new sets:
CAE/ME/General Eng. Workstation 64-bit Kernel
CAE/ME/General Eng. Workstation 32-bit Kernel
EE Engineering Workstation 64-bit Kernel
EE Engineering Workstation 32-bit Kernel
The 64-bit versions of these parameter sets configure the kernel to use the increased process data space. The CAE/ME/General Engineering Workstation sets are for general workstation use, which includes running typical MDA applications. The EE Engineering Workstation sets are for compute-intensive applications that do not perform large amounts of disk I/O. Many EDA applications fall into this category. Be sure to select the 64-bit or 32-bit versions depending on the "bitness" of your installed kernel.

The HP-UX 11i provides workstation support for the 64-bit X Window System shared library (stack).
The following X and Motif libraries are available in 64-bits:
|
|
|
To date, these libraries are only found in release 6 of the X libs (X11 R6) and Motif version 2.1. No 64-bit versions of the tooltalk libraries, libtt, or libDtSvc are available.
The 64-bit X Window System (X11 R6) run-time libraries are usable only on systems that support the 64-bit operating system. To use the 64-bit run-time libraries, you must specify that the application will run (compile) in 64-bit mode. The 64-bit libraries are then used automatically.
