- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- The Linux PCI Utilities contain various utilities for dealing with the PCI
- bus in Linux:
-
- - lspci: displays detailed information about all PCI busses and devices
- in the system, replacing the original /proc/pci interface.
-
- - setpci: allows to read from and write to PCI device configuration
- registers. For example, you can adjust the latency timers with it.
-
- See manual pages for more details.
-
- You _NEED_ kernel 2.1.82 or newer which supports /proc/bus/pci.
-
- If you have any bug reports or suggestions, send them to the author.
-
- If you want, subscribe to linux-pci@atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz (send
- "subscribe linux-pci Your Full Name" to listproc@atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz).
- Release notes about new versions will be send to the list and problems with
- the Linux PCI support will be probably discussed there, too.
-
- You also might want to look at the pciutils web page containing release
- notes and other news: http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~mj/pciutils.html.
