User Commands                                          GLXINFO(1)



NAME
     glxinfo - display info about a GLX extension and OpenGL ren-
     derer.

SYNOPSIS
     glxinfo [-t] [-v] [-b] [-display displayname]

DESCRIPTION
     glxinfo lists information about the  GLX  extension,  OpenGL
     capable visuals, and the OpenGL renderer on an X server. The
     GLX and renderer info includes  the  version  and  extension
     attributes.  The visual info lists the GLX visual attributes
     available for each OpenGL capable visual (e.g.  whether  the
     visual  is double buffered, the component sizes, Z-buffering
     depth, etc).

     Command line options include:

     -t      By default the visual info is presented in a concise
             80  character  wide  tabular  format.  The -t option
             directs glxinfo to produce a  wider,  more  readable
             tabular format.

     -v      Directs  glxinfo to generate a verbose format output
             style for the visual list similar  to  the  info  of
             xdpyinfo.

     -b      Print the ID of the "best" visual on screen 0.

     -l      Print interesting OpenGL limits.

     -i      Use indirect rendering connection only.

     -display displayname
             Specify the display to query.

ENVIRONMENT
     DISPLAY To get the default host, display number, and screen.
