  -fg color, -foreground color
      Specifies the color to use for the window foreground.

DESCRIPTION
  The Kernel Tuner application, dxkerneltuner, is used to maintain and manage
  the attributes of loadable kernel subsystems. It enables you to update the
  current and boot time values of updatable kernel subsystem attributes.

  Use Kernel Tuner to do the following:

    ·  Display kernel subsystems

    ·  Display boot time and current values of kernel subsystem attributes

    ·  Modify boot time values of kernel subsystem attributes

    ·  Modify current values of updatable kernel subsystem attributes

    ·  Read values for kernel subsystem attributes from a file

    ·  Write values for kernel subsystem attributes to a file


  You must be root to run Kernel Tuner.

  To start Kernel Tuner from the CDE desktop, do the following:

   1.  Click on the Application Manager icon on the CDE front panel.

   2.  Double click on the System_Admin application group icon.

   3.  Double click on the Monitoring Tuning application group icon.

   4.  Double click on the Kernel Tuner application icon.

  Online Help


  For additional information about the graphical user interface, see the
  online help volume. To open the online help volume from within Kernel
  Tuner, run the application and choose Overview from the Help menu in the
  main window.

  You can click on the topics in the outline area to move through the online
  help. You can also click on hyperlinks, which are displayed using
  underlined text. In each dialog box within the application, you can click
  on the Help button to get reference information on that dialog box.

  You can get help for a specified component in the application. To do so,
  choose On Item from the Help menu in the application. The cursor changes to
  a question mark. When you click with the question mark, reference
  information is displayed about the part of the application that you clicked
  on.

  The online help does not document individual kernel subsystem attributes.
  For information on tuning particular attributes, see the System
  Configuration and Tuning guide.

EXAMPLES
  To start Kernel Tuner from the command line, enter dxkerneltuner
