NAME

6       linux-driver-management - Query and manage drivers
7

SYNOPSIS

9       linux-driver-management [options?] [subcommand]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       linux-driver-management  is  the  main introspection and control binary
13       provided with the linux-driver-management library and project.  Primar‐
14       ily  it  is  used to query system devices and status, and also provides
15       configuration options for X11 for certain drivers.
16

SUBCOMMANDS

18       The following subcommands are understood by linux-driver-management(1).
19
20       configure [gpu]
21
22
23
24           Attempt configuration of the GPU specific details for X11. For
25           "simple" devices configurations, this will invariably just configure
26           the main X11 configuration file.
27
28           For hybrid GPU configurations (such as Optimus), when used in
29           conjunction with the proprietary drivers, specialist support will
30           be enabled to ensure that X11 sessions will set the primary output
31           provider to the discrete GPU.
32
33           The result is that `ldm-session-init` will be invoked at the
34           start of the session by the display manager. This can be added
35           to your `xinitrc` file if you are not using a display manager.
