NAME
getconfig - get configuration information for the Xorg server
SYNOPSIS
getconfig [option ...]
DESCRIPTION
getconfig is a programmatic interface that is used by the Xorg server
to get configuration information about video hardware when operating
without an xorg.conf file.
This implementation of getconfig is written in perl. It processes a
prioritized and ordered list of rules supplied internally and from
meta-configuration files. The rules are in the form of perl expres-
sions. getconfig writes to standard output the xorg.conf-style config-
uration data specified by the last highest priority rule that evaluates
to true. Information about the format of the meta-configuration files
can be found in the getconfig(5) manual page.
OPTIONS
-I search-path
Specify the search path to use for meta-config files. search-
path is a comma-separated list of directories to search. Each
directory in the search path is searched for files with a .cfg
suffix. Each such file is opened and checked for a valid sig-
nature string. Rules are read from files with a valid signa-
ture string and appended to the list of rules to evaluate. If
no search path is specified, only the internally supplied con-
figuration rules will be used.
-D Enable debugging output.
-V Print out the version information and exit.
-X Xorg-version Specify the Xorg version in numeric (integer)
form.
-b subsys-id
Specify the PCI subsystem ID of the video device.
-c class
Specify the PCI class of the video device.
-d device-id
Specify the PCI devide ID of the video device.
-r revision
Specify the PCI revision of the video device.
-s subsysvendor-id
Specify the PCI subsystem vendor ID of the video device.
-v vendor-id
Specify the PCI vendor ID of the video device.
FILES
.cfg files located in the search path. The search path typically spec-
ified by the Xorg server is:
/etc/X11
/usr/X11R6/etc/X11
<modulepath>
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/getconfig
where <modulepath> is the Xorg server's module search path.
