glxinfo - display info about a GLX extension
and OpenGL renderer.
glxinfo [-t] [-v] [-b] [-display displayname]
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

display to query.
