+.Dt COMPAT_HPUX 8
+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm compat_hpux
+.Nd setup procedure for running HP-UX binaries
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Ox
+supports running HP-UX binaries.
+This applies only to m68k systems (such as hp300 systems).
+Most programs should work, such as Matlab 4.2c and the HP-UX X11R5 server.
+Programs that will not work are fairly uncommon, and often involve very low
+level hardware access.
+.Pp
+The HP-UX compatibility feature is active
+for kernels compiled with the
+.Dv COMPAT_HPUX
+and
+.Dv COMPAT_M68K4K
+options enabled.
+HP-UX for m68k uses 4 KB page sizes, and
+.Ox
+for all m68k platforms now use 8 KB page sizes.
+.Pp
+A lot of programs are dynamically linked.
+This means that you will need the HP-UX shared libraries that the program
+depends on.
+Also, you will need to create a
+.Dq shadow root
+directory for HP-UX binaries on your
+.Ox
+system.
+This directory is named
+.Pa /emul/hpux .
+Any file operations done by HP-UX programs run under
+.Ox
+will look in this directory first. So, if a HP-UX program opens, for example,
+.Pa /etc/passwd ,
+.Ox
+will first try to open
+.Pa /emul/hpux/etc/passwd ,
+and if that does not exist open the
+.Sq real
+.Pa /etc/passwd
+file.
+It is recommended that you install hpux packages that include configuration
+files, etc, under
+.Pa /emul/hpux ,
+to avoid naming conflicts with possible
+.Ox
+counterparts.
+Shared libraries should also be installed in the shadow tree.
+.Pp
+Generally, you will need to look for the shared libraries that HP-UX
+binaries depend on only the first few times that you install a HP-UX
+program on your
+.Ox
+system.
+After a while, you will have a sufficient set of HP-UX shared libraries on your
+system to be able to run newly imported HP-UX binaries without any extra work.
+.Ss Setting up shared libraries
+How to get to know which shared libraries HP-UX binaries need, and where to get
+them?
+Basically, there are 2 possibilities (when following these instructions: you
+will need to be root on your
+.Ox
+system to do the necessary installation steps).
+.Bl -enum
+.It
+You must have login access to an HP-UX system.
+These instructions apply to HP-UX 9.10 (the latest version of HP-UX available
+for m68k-based systems), although the instructions should be similar for earlier
+versions of HP-UX.
+By far, the easiest method is to copy the essential files locally to your
+.Ox
+system.
+.Pp
+Use tar, or a similar utility to collect the following files:
+.Bl -item -compact
+.It
+All files in the
+.Pa /usr/lib
+directory ending in
+.Li ".sl" .
+There should be about 46 files and two soft links.
+.It
+All files in the
+.Pa /lib
+directory ending in
+.Li ".sl" .
+There should be 5 files.
+.El
+.Pp
+Now, you need to copy these files to your
+.Ox
+system, and extract them into
+.Pa /emul/hpux ,
+for example, you should end up with the following files:
+.Bl -item -compact
+.It
+.Pa /emul/hpux/lib/dld.sl
+.It
+.Pa /emul/hpux/lib/libc.sl
+.It
+.Pa /emul/hpux/lib/libm.sl
+.It
+.Pa /emul/hpux/lib/libM.sl
+.It
+.Pa /emul/hpux/lib/libcurses.sl
+.It
+And a whole bunch of files in
+.Pa /emul/hpux/usr/lib .
+.El
+Overall, HP-UX 9.10 has about 10 MB of shared libraries that you will have
+ended up copying to your system.
+.It
+You have access to an HP-UX system with its entire root drive exported via NFS.
+In this case, you simply mount the entire HP-UX system under
+.Pa /emul/hpux .
+For example, on your
+.Ox
+system, you might mount it as:
+.Dl mount -t nfs hpux-host.test.net:/ /emul/hpux
+Note that, in this case, the HP-UX emulation will use the configuration files
+from the HP-UX system
+.Pq Pa /etc/passwd , for example
+and this might not be what you want.
+.El
+.Ss Setting up X11R5
+Although the
+.Ox
+based X11R5 server is the preferred way to run X on your system, you might
+want to run the HP-UX X11R5 server instead.
+To do so, you will need to grab a few additional files:
+.Bl -item -compact
+.It
+.Pa /usr/bin/X11/X
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/grmd
+.It
+The shared libraries in
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11R5
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/Motif1.2/libXm.sl
+.It
+All the subdirectories and files in
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/fonts
+.It
+All the files in
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/nls/Xhp
+.It
+All the files in
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/extensions
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/XHPKeymaps
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/XHPmodmap
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/XPCmodmap
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/XKeysymDB
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/Xconsoles
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/X0screens
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/X0devices
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/X0pointerkeys
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/rgb.dir
+.It
+.Pa /usr/lib/X11/rgb.pag
+.El
+.Pp
+You'll also need to perform a few configuration steps:
+.Bl -enum
+.It
+Get and extract the
+.Pa xbase.tgz
+set for your version of
+.Ox
+to provide the X11R6 clients you'll be using with your new X server.
+.It
+Create the following directory for the X server to deposit its socket files
+in:
+.Dl mkdir -p /usr/spool/sockets/X11
+.Dl chmod 777 /usr/spool/sockets/X11
+.It
+Add the following lines to your
+.Pa /etc/rc.local
+to create the necessary directories for the X server to deposit its files in,
+when your system boots:
+.Dl mkdir /tmp/.X11-unix
+.Dl chmod 777 /tmp/.X11-unix
+.Dl ln -s /usr/spool/sockets/X11/0 /tmp/.X11-unix/X0
+.It
+You may also want to link your X server to a more convenient location, such as:
+.Dl ln -s /emul/hpux/usr/bin/X /usr/X11R6/bin/X
+.El
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr options 4 ,
+.Xr config 8
+.Sh BUGS
+You may not be able to run the X server on multiple framebuffers, even though
+both the X server and
+.Ox
+support them.
