NAME

6       viaideinfo - display stats/info about VIA IDE controllers
7

SYNOPSIS

9       viaideinfo options
10

DESCRIPTION

12       viaideinfo is a command line application which prints basic information
13       about VIA IDE controllers present in the system.
14
15       viaideinfo must be run as root.
16
17       viaideinfo attempts to automatically detect the IDE controllers present
18       in  the  system,  and  their  associated ISA bridges. You also have the
19       option of specifying a custom device to assume is the IDE  device,  but
20       you do not have this option for the ISA bridge.
21
22       This  application  calculates  some  timing details. These calculations
23       involve an IDE bus speed, which is assumed to be  33MHz.  This  is  not
24       always  true,  so  if  you think you know better, you can override this
25       default. If an incorrect bus speed is being used, the timing data  will
26       be wrong.
27

OPTIONS

29       --help Print a brief help and usage message.
30
31       -c, --ide-clock=SPEED
32              Assume SPEED MHz as the IDE bus speed (default 33).
33
34       -d, --device=BUS:DEV.FUNC
35              Don't  autodetect  IDE  controller, use the specified PCI device
36              instead (example: 00:11.1). You will  get  odd  results  if  you
37              specify a device which is not a VIA IDE controller.
