GLXINFO(1)							   GLXINFO(1)



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

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	char-
	       acter  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.
