fixes, normal fixes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
KNOWN ISSUES:
1. Failed to handle case for monitor positions of array type: 2-2, 3-1, 1-3,
4-4. I'm not sure what structure those are really arranged in, but might be
worth adding in the x+y pos values along with the row-col values.
2. For Monitors and graphics Device ports, if using non free nvidia driver and:
nvidia-drm.modeset=1 not set in grub kernel boot parameters, there will be no
/sys/class/drm data for the nvidia device, and thus no ports data, and no
monitor data.
3. A class of high count DP or DVI port IDs are changed by Xorg drivers to for
example: DP-6 > DP-2-3. This is very difficult to handle and will in general
probably fail unfortunately because that level of port ID abstraction is just
reazlly hard to deal with dynamically.
4. A to-do item: add bus ID children on --slots. This will probablby be in next
inxi.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUGS:
1. None outside of the various fixes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FIXES:
1. In sensors, failed to pull out BAT sensor data. In most cases, this would not
lead to any issues, but it could have.
2. This one just slipped my mind, I'd meant to do it, but in Montitor-x:, the
primary ID should have been the 'real' kernel ID, not the mapped: ID, which is
the X.org ID when different from the kernel ID. So mapped should be the Xorg
version when they are different from the kernel version.
3. In Graphics, monitors can show > 1 ratio, failed to set all to :, resulting
in: ratio: 3:2 or 16/10 modes:. Also fixed ParseEDID to output an array of
ratios, which can then be processed as wanted.
4. Monitor map fixes:
* Handle case in monitors where display ID: eDP and sys ID: eDP-1, this only
works if 1 monitor in array. There's a variety of this type of failure, when
X.org or its drivers decide to call the port ID XYZ with no number at all. All
those possible cases are now handled, like eDP > eDP-1, VGA > VGA-1, and so on.
* Added fallback, if no match, and if only 1 monitor, just map them to eachother
if other mappings failed. Prompted by things like: s: DP-6 > d: DP-2-3;
s: eDP-1 > d: DP-4, which are just impossible to create logic to map.
5. Removed 'ati' driver from xorg drivers list, it's simply a wrapper for r128,
mach64, or radeon (and maybe amdgpu), and shows as failed, unloaded, or loaded,
because of this. ati basically assigns the correct driver, that is, but is not
itself a driver. Thanks mrmazda for spotting this issue.
6. Typo on QDI => Quantum Data.
7. Added fallback for monitor model, now using vendor code plus product code
if nothing found for vendor nice name or model. This will show as 'model-id:'
instead of model: to help differentiate the two.
8. Added Monitor product_code to manufacturer if no model name is found.
9. get_pci_vendor was trimming at ' / ' if the product string also contained
' / '. Fix is to ignore 1 character 'words' in the logic.
10. In Slots, failed to remove_duplicates in the slot info field, leading to
redundant output strings. See Enhancement 3 and Code 4.
11. See Change 3, finally made -S section use full key: value pair, which makes
stuff more explicit, like:
System:
Host: yawn
Kernel: 5.16.0-11.1-liquorix-amd64
arch: x86_64
bits: 64
compiler: gcc
v: 11.2.0
Desktop: Xfce
v: 4.16.0
tk: Gtk
v: 3.24.24
info: xfce4-panel
wm: xfwm
v: 4.16.1
vt: 7
dm:
1: LightDM
v: 1.26.0
2: SDDM
note: stopped
Distro: Debian GNU/Linux bookworm/sid
12. Fix for mageia and lsb distro data, force use of os-release for mageia if
detected. That overrides the forced use of lsb release for mandrake/mandriva,
because for some reason mageia has decided to carry ALL the legacy distro files:
'/etc/lsb-release',
'/etc/lsb-release.d',
'/etc/mageia-release',
'/etc/mandrake-release',
'/etc/mandrakelinux-release',
'/etc/mandriva-release',
'/etc/os-release',
'/etc/redhat-release',
'/etc/system-release'
which is really not what this stuff is intended for, if it's an actual derived
distro from a living base, then yes, include the base file, but all these have
the same distro id data for mageia, none for the derived distros.
Also, fixed an lsb release thing to avoid using codename if codename contains
release number as well. Since lsb_release is totally legacy at this point, who
cares if we might miss a specific codename here and there on legacy system.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ENHANCEMENTS:
1. Added Color Characteristics to EDID parser, for some reason that had been
left out.
2. Added advanced EDID output option --edid, that allows for showing more
advanced EDID data than is appropriate for most users cases. Ihcludes errors,
color characteristics chroma: (chromacity), full modes, not just min/max.
3. In --slots, added bus-ID.
Also extended report quality, made more granular, got rid of single blob from
Type and Designation and now get more accurate and useful data.
4. In cases with > 1 DM, check to see if one or more are stopped or disabled, =
and add (stopped) if it was detected in running service as stopped.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHANGES:
1. Reversed monitor ID and mapped: ID values, that was a mistake, the mapped:
item was supposed to contain the X.org mapped name, and the primary ID was
supposed to be the actual real ID the kernel uses. Not a huge deal either way,
but there it is.
2. Include disabled but connected Monitors. This works around nvidia bug showing
monitors disabled when they are enabled, but also allows for showing connected
monitors, though without as much data.
3. Made the last holdout -S > -Sa use strict full key: value pair output, like
Desktop: XFCE v: 4.14.12 and so on.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DOCUMENTATION:
1. Added help/man for --edid info.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CODE:
1. In ParseEDID: made new key: edid_error, which contains an array ref of 1 or
more edid errors. The previous version did a poor job and returned only the
first error found, so there could have been > 1 error, and you'd never know it.
This changes check_parsed_edid to _check_parsed_edid(). and adds a utility tool
_edid_error, which grabs the message from main::message, giving better output
integration.
This also allows for future error handling expansion quite easily.
2. In map_monitor_ids() fixed matching pattern, made more robust and explicit,
to catch things like s: eDP-1 d: eDP or eDP-1-1, both have been seen. Also added
fallback for single monitor, just map them to eachother if mapping failed.
3. get_pci_vendor() added test for using anything that is 1 character length,
to not break on 1 character length string matches.
4. Fully refactored --slots, that was originally written purely as a proof of
concept in terms of adding a new feature during the original inxi 2.9 rewrite,
and was never actually touched after that.

All short form options have long form variants \- see below for these and more
|
|
advanced options.
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
\fBinxi\fR is a command line system information script built for console and
|
|
IRC. It is also used a debugging tool for forum technical support to quickly
|
|
ascertain users' system configurations and hardware. inxi shows system
|
|
hardware, CPU, drivers, Xorg, Desktop, Kernel, gcc version(s), Processes, RAM
|
|
usage, and a wide variety of other useful information.
|
|
|
|
\fBinxi\fR output varies depending on whether it is being used on CLI or IRC,
|
|
with some default filters and color options applied only for IRC use.
|
|
Script colors can be turned off if desired with \fB\-c 0\fR, or changed
|
|
using the \fB\-c\fR color options listed in the STANDARD OPTIONS section below.
|
|
|
|
.SH PRIVACY AND SECURITY
|
|
In order to maintain basic privacy and security, inxi used on IRC automatically
|
|
filters out your network device MAC address, WAN and LAN IP, your \fB/home\fR
|
|
username directory in partitions, and a few other items.
|
|
|
|
Because inxi is often used on forums for support, you can also trigger this
|
|
filtering with the \fB\-z\fR option (\fB\-Fz\fR, for example). To override
|
|
the IRC filter, you can use the \fB\-Z\fR option. This can be useful in
|
|
debugging network connection issues online in a private chat, for example.
|
|
|
|
.SH USING OPTIONS
|
|
Options can be combined if they do not conflict. You can either group the
|
|
letters together or separate them.
|
|
|
|
Letters with numbers can have no gap or a gap at your discretion, except when
|
|
using \fB \-t\fR. Note that if you use an option that requires an additional
|
|
argument, that must be last in the short form group of options. Otherwise
|
|
you can use those separately as well.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
\fBinxi \-AG\fR | \fBinxi \-A \-G\fR | \fBinxi \-b\fR | \fBinxi \-c10\fR
|
|
| \fBinxi \-FxxzJy90\fR | \fBinxi \-bay\fR
|
|
|
|
Note that all the short form options have long form equivalents, which are
|
|
listed below. However, usually the short form is used in examples in order to
|
|
keep things simple.
|
|
|
|
These are available options sections:
|
|
|
|
* \fBSTANDARD OPTIONS\fR Primary data types trigger items.
|
|
|
|
* \fBFILTER OPTIONS\fR Apply a variety of output filters.
|
|
|
|
* \fBOUTPUT CONTROL OPTIONS\fR Change default colors, widths, heights, output
|
|
types, etc.
|
|
|
|
* \fBEXTRA DATA OPTIONS\fR What \fB\-x\fR, \fB\-xx\fR, \fB\-xxx\fR, and \fB\-a\fR
|
|
add to the output.
|
|
|
|
* \fBADVANCED OPTIONS\fR Modify behavior or choice of data sources, and other
|
|
advanced switches.
|
|
|
|
* \fBDEBUGGING OPTIONS\fR For development use mainly, or contributing datasets to
|
|
the project.
|
|
|
|
.SH STANDARD OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-A \fR, \fB\-\-audio\fR
|
|
Show Audio/sound device(s) information, including device driver. Show running
|
|
sound server(s). See \fB\-xxA\fR to show all sound servers detected.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-b \fR, \fB\-\-basic\fR
|
|
Show basic output, short form. Same as: \fBinxi \-v 2\fR
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-B \fR, \fB\-\-battery\fR
|
|
Show system battery (\fBID\-x\fR) data, charge, condition, plus extra
|
|
information (if battery present). Uses \fB/sys\fR or, for BSDs without systctl
|
|
battery data, use \fB\-\-dmidecode\fR to force its use. \fBdmidecode\fR does
|
|
not have very much information, and none about current battery
|
|
state/charge/voltage. Supports multiple batteries when using \fB/sys\fR or
|
|
\fBsysctl\fR data.
|
|
|
|
Note that for \fBcharge:\fR, the output shows the current charge, as well as
|
|
its value as a percentage of the available capacity, which can be less than
|
|
the original design capacity. In the following example, the actual current
|
|
available capacity of the battery is \fB22.2 Wh\fR.
|
|
|
|
\fBcharge: 20.1 Wh (95.4%)\fR
|
|
|
|
The \fBcondition:\fR item shows the remaining available capacity / original
|
|
design capacity, and then this figure as a percentage of original capacity
|
|
available in the battery.
|
|
|
|
\fBcondition: 22.2/36.4 Wh (61%)\fR
|
|
|
|
With \fB\-x\fR, or if voltage difference is critical, \fBvolts:\fR item shows
|
|
the current voltage, and the \fBmin:\fR voltage. Note that if the current is
|
|
below the minimum listed the battery is essentially dead and will not charge.
|
|
Test that to confirm, but that's technically how it's supposed to work.
|
|
|
|
\fBvolts: 12.0 min: 11.4\fR
|
|
|
|
With \fB\-x\fR shows attached \fBDevice\-x\fR information (mouse, keyboard,
|
|
etc.) if they are battery powered.
|

.B \-C \fR, \fB\-\-cpu\fR
|
|
Show full CPU output (if each item available): basic CPU topology, model, type,
|
|
L2 cache, average speed of all cores (if > 1 core, otherwise speed of the core),
|
|
min/max speeds for CPU, and per CPU clock speed. More data available with
|
|
\fB\-x\fR, \fB\-xxx\fR, and \fB\-a\fR options.
|
|
|
|
Explanation of CPU type (\fBtype: MT MCP\fR) abbreviations:
|
|
|
|
* \fBAMCP\fR \- Asymmetric Multi Core Processor. More than 1 core per CPU, and
|
|
more than one core type (single and multithreaded cores in the same CPU).
|
|
|
|
* \fBAMP\fR \- Asymmetric Multi Processing (more than 1 physical CPU, but not
|
|
identical in terms of core counts or min/max speeds).
|
|
|
|
* \fBMT\fR \- Multi/Hyper Threaded CPU (more than 1 thread per core, previously
|
|
\fBHT\fR).
|
|
|
|
* \fBMST\fR \- Multi and Single Threaded CPU (a CPU with both Single and Multi
|

|
.TP
|
|
.B \-d \fR, \fB\-\-disk\-full\fR,\fB\-\-optical\fR
|
|
Show optical drive data as well as \fB\-D\fR hard drive data. With \fB\-x\fR,
|
|
adds a feature line to the output. Also shows floppy disks if present. Note
|
|
that there is no current way to get any information about the floppy device
|
|
that we are aware of, so it will simply show the floppy ID without any extra
|
|
data. \fB\-xx\fR adds a few more features.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-D \fR, \fB\-\-disk\fR
|
|
Show Hard Disk info. Shows total disk space and used percentage. The disk used
|
|
percentage includes space used by swap partition(s), since those are not usable
|
|
for data storage. Also, unmounted partitions are not counted in disk use
|
|
percentages since inxi has no access to the used amount.
|
|
|
|
If the system has RAID or other logical storage, and if inxi can determine
|
|
the size of those vs their components, you will see the storage total raw and
|
|
usable sizes, plus the percent used of the usable size. The no argument short
|
|
form of inxi will show only the usable (or total if no usable) and used
|
|
percent. If there is no logical storage detected, only \fBtotal:\fR and
|
|
\fBused:\fR will show. Sample (with RAID logical size calculated):
|
|
|
|
\fBLocal Storage: total: raw: 5.49 TiB usable: 2.80 TiB used: 1.35 TiB
|
|
(48.3%)\fR
|
|
|
|
Without logical storage detected:
|
|
|
|
\fBLocal Storage: total: 2.89 TiB used: 1.51 TiB (52.3%)\fR
|
|
|
|
Also shows per disk information: Disk ID, type (if present), vendor (if
|
|
detected), model, and size. See \fBExtra Data Options\fR (\fB\-x\fR options)
|
|
and \fBAdmin Extra Data Options\fR (\fB\-\-admin\fR options) for many more
|
|
features.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-E\fR, \fB\-\-bluetooth\fR
|
|
Show bluetooth device(s), drivers. Show \fBReport:\fR with HCI ID, state,
|
|
address per device (requires \fBbt\-adapter\fR or \fBhciconfig\fR),
|
|
and if available (hciconfig only) bluetooth version (\fBbt\-v\fR).
|
|
See \fBExtra Data Options\fR for more.
|
|
|
|
If bluetooth shows as \fBstatus: down\fR, shows \fBbt\-service:\fR\fB state
|
|
and rfkill\fR software and hardware blocked states, and rfkill ID.
|
|
|
|
Note that \fBReport\-ID:\fR indicates that the HCI item was not able to be
|
|
linked to a specific device, similar to \fBIF\-ID:\fR in \fB\-n\fR.
|
|
|
|
If your internal bluetooth device does not show, it's possible that
|
|
it has been disabled, if you try enabling it using for example:
|
|
|
|
\fBhciconfig hci0 up\fR
|
|
|
|
and it returns a blocked by RF\-Kill error, you can do one of these:
|
|
|
|
\fBconnmanctl enable bluetooth\fR
|
|
|

|
|
swap partition(s) will not show on the \fB\-P\fR line to avoid redundancy.
|

\fB\-l\fR or\fB \-u\fR.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-J \fR, \fB\-\-usb\fR
|
|
Show USB data for attached Hubs and Devices. Hubs also show number of ports. Be
|
|
aware that a port is not always external, some may be internal, and either used
|
|
or unused (for example, a motherboard USB header connector that is not used).
|
|
|
|
Hubs and Devices are listed in order of BusID.
|
|
|
|
BusID is generally in this format: BusID\-port[.port][.port]:DeviceID
|
|
|
|
Device ID is a number created by the kernel, and has no necessary ordering or
|
|
sequence connection, but can be used to match this output to lsusb values, which
|
|
generally shows BusID / DeviceID (except for tree view, which shows ports).
|
|
|
|
Examples: \fBDevice\-3: 4\-3.2.1:2\fR or \fBHub: 4\-0:1\fR
|
|
|
|
The \fBrev: 2.0\fR item refers to the USB revision number, like \fB1.0\fR or
|
|
\fB3.1\fR.

.TP
|

.B \-l \fR, \fB\-\-label\fR
|
|
Show partition labels. Use with \fB\-j\fR, \fB\-o\fR, \fB\-p\fR, and \fB\-P\fR
|
|
to show partition labels. Does nothing without one of those options.
|
|
|
|
Sample: \fB\-ojpl\fR.

.TP
|
|
.B \-L\fR, \fB\-\-logical\fR
|
|
Show Logical volume information, for LVM, LUKS, bcache, etc. Shows size, free
|
|
space (for LVM VG). For LVM, shows \fBDevice\-[xx]: VG:\fR (Volume Group)
|
|
size/free, \fBLV\-[xx]\fR (Logical Volume). LV shows type, size, and components.
|
|
Note that components are made up of either containers (aka, logical devices), or
|
|
physical devices. The full report requires doas/sudo/root.
|
|
|
|
Logical block devices can be thought of as devices that are made up out of
|
|
either other logical devices, or physical devices. inxi does its best to show
|
|
what each logical device is made out of. RAID devices form a subset of all
|
|
possible Logical devices, but have their own section, \fB\-R\fR.
|
|
|
|
If \fB\-R\fR is used with \fB\-Lxx\fR, \fB\-Lxx\fR will not show RAID
|
|
information for LVM RAID devices since it's redundant. If \fB\-R\fR is not used,
|
|
a simple RAID line will appear for LVM RAID in \fB\-Lxx\fR.
|
|
|
|
\fB\-Lxx\fR also shows all components and devices. Note that since components
|
|
can go in many levels, each level per primary component is indicated by either
|
|
another 'c', or ends with a 'p' device, the physical device. The number of c's
|
|
or p's indicates the depth, so you can see which component belongs to which.
|
|
|
|
\fB\-L\fR shows only the top level components/devices (like \fB\-R\fR).
|
|
\fB\-La\fR shows component/device size, maj:min ID, mapped name (if applicable),
|
|
and puts each component/device on its own line.
|
|
|

.B \-m \fR, \fB\-\-memory\fR
|
|
Memory (RAM) data. Does not display with \fB\-b\fR or \fB\-F\fR unless you
|
|
use \fB\-m\fR explicitly. Ordered by system board physical system memory
|
|
array(s) (\fBArray\-[number]\fR), and individual memory devices
|
|
(\fBDevice\-[number]\fR). Physical memory array data shows array capacity,
|
|
number of devices supported, and Error Correction information. Devices shows
|
|
locator data (highly variable in syntax), size, speed, type
|
|
(eg: \fBtype: DDR3\fR).
|
|
|
|
Note: \fB\-m\fR uses \fBdmidecode\fR, which must be run as root (or start
|
|
\fBinxi\fR with \fBdoas/sudo\fR), unless you figure out how to set up doas/sudo
|
|
to permit dmidecode to read \fB/dev/mem\fR as user. \fBspeed\fR and
|
|
\fBbus\-width\fR will not show if \fBNo Module Installed\fR is found in
|
|
\fBsize\fR.
|
|
|
|
Note: If \fB\-m\fR is triggered RAM total/used report will appear in this
|
|
section, not in \fB\-I\fR or \fB\-tm\fR items.
|
|
|
|
Because \fBdmidecode\fR data is extremely unreliable, inxi will try to make
|
|
best guesses. If you see \fB(check)\fR after the capacity number, you should
|
|
check it with the specifications. \fB(est)\fR is slightly more reliable, but
|
|
you should still check the real specifications before buying RAM. Unfortunately
|
|
there is nothing \fBinxi\fR can do to get truly reliable data about the system
|
|
RAM; maybe one day the kernel devs will put this data into \fB/sys\fR, and make
|
|
it real data, taken from the actual system, not dmi data. For most people, the
|
|
data will be right, but a significant percentage of users will have either a
|
|
wrong max module size, if present, or max capacity.
|
|
|
|
Under dmidecode, \fBSpeed:\fR is the expected speed of the memory
|
|
(what is advertised on the memory spec sheet) and \fBConfigured Clock Speed:\fR
|
|
is what the actual speed is now. To handle this, if speed and configured speed
|
|
values are different, you will see this instead:
|
|
|
|
\fBspeed: spec: [specified speed] MT/S actual: [actual] MT/S\fR
|
|
|
|
Also, if DDR, and speed in MHz, will change to: \fBspeed: [speed] MT/S
|
|
([speed] MHz)\fR
|
|
|

If the detected speed is logically absurd, like 1 MT/s or 69910 MT/s, adds:

BIOS boot mode in a system board using UEFI.

Device information requires either \fB/sys\fR or \fBdmidecode\fR. Note that

\fBother\-vm?\fR is a type that means it's usually a VM, but inxi failed to

detect which type, or positively confirm which VM it is. Primary VM

identification is via systemd\-detect\-virt but fallback tests that should also

support some BSDs are used. Less commonly used or harder to detect VMs may not

|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-c \fR[\fB94\fR\-\fB99\fR]
|
|
These color selectors run a color selector option prior to inxi starting
|
|
which lets you set the config file value for the selection.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: All configuration file set color values are removed when output is
|
|
piped or redirected. You must use the explicit runtime \fB\-c <color number>\fR
|
|
option if you want color codes to be present in the piped/redirected output.
|

.TP
|
|
.B \-\-indent [11\-xx]\fR
|
|
Change primary wide indent width. Generally useless. Only applied if output
|
|
width is greater than max wrap width (see \fB\-\-max\-wrap\fR). Use
|
|
configuration item \fBINDENT\fR to make permanent.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-indents [0\-10]\fR
|
|
Change primary wrap mode, second, and \fB\-y1\fR level indents. First indent
|
|
level only applied if output width is less than max wrap width (see
|
|
\fB\-\-max\-wrap\fR). 0 disables all wrapped indents and all second level
|
|
indents. Use configuration item \fBINDENTS\fR to make permanent.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-limit [\-1 \- x]\fR
|
|
Raise or lower max output limit of IP addresses for \fB\-i\fR. \fB\-1\fR
|
|
removes limit.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-max\-wrap\fR, \fB\-\-wrap\-max [integer]\fR
|
|
Overrides default or configuration set line starter wrap width value. Wrap max
|
|
is the maximum width that inxi will wrap line starters (e.g. \fBInfo:\fR) to
|
|
their own lines, with data lines indented default 2 columns (use
|
|
\fB\-\-indents\fR to change).
|
|
|
|
If terminal/console width or \fB\-\-width\fR is less than wrap width, wrapping
|
|
of line starter occurs. If \fB80\fR or less, no wrapping will occur. Overrides
|
|
internal default value (110) and user configuration value \fBMAX_WRAP\fR.

.B \-\-partition\-sort [dev\-base|fs|id|label|percent\-used|size|uuid|used]\fR
|
|
Change default sort order of partition output. Corresponds to
|
|
\fBPARTITION_SORT\fR configuration item. These are the available sort options:
|
|
|
|
\fBdev\-base\fR - \fB/dev\fR partition identifier, like \fB/dev/sda1\fR.
|
|
Note that it's an alphabetic sort, so \fBsda12\fR is before \fBsda2\fR.
|
|
|
|
\fBfs\fR \- Partition filesystem. Note that sorts will be somewhat random if
|
|
all filesystems are the same.
|
|
|
|
\fBid\fR \- Mount point of partition (default).
|
|
|
|
\fBlabel\fR \- Label of partition. If partitions have no labels,
|
|
sort will be random.
|
|
|
|
\fBpercent\-used\fR - Percentage of partition size used.
|
|
|
|
\fBsize\fR \- KiB size of partition.
|

This is an absolute width override which sets the output line width max.
|
|
Overrides \fBCOLS_MAX_IRC\fR, \fBCOLS_MAX_NO_DISPLAY\fR, \fBCOLS_MAX_CONSOLE\fR
|
|
configuration items, or the actual widths of the terminal.
|
|
|
|
* \fB\-y\fR \- sets default width of 80 columns.
|

.br
|
|
* \fB\-y [80-xxx]\fR \- sets width to given number. Must be 80 or more.
|
|
.br
|
|
* \fB\-y 1\fR \- switches to a single indented key/value pair per line, and
|
|
removes all long line wrapping (similar to \fBdmidecode\fR output). Not
|
|
recommended for use with \fB\-Y\fR;
|
|
.br
|
|
* \fB\-y \-1\fR \- removes width limits (if assigned by configuration items).

.B \-Y\fR, \fB\-\-height\fR, \fB\-\-less [\-3\-[integer]\fR
|
|
Control output height. Useful when in console, and scrollback not available.
|
|
Breaks output flow based on values provided.
|
|
|
|
* \fB\-Y 0\fR or \fB\-Y\fR \- Set default max height to terminal height.
|
|
.br
|
|
* \fB\-Y [1\-xxx]\fR \- set max output block height height in lines.
|
|
.br
|
|
* \fB\-Y \-1\fR \- Print out one primary data item block (like \fBCPU:\fR,
|
|
\fBSystem:\fR) at a time. Useful for very long outputs like \fB\-Fa\fR,
|
|
\fB\-v8\fR, etc. Not available for \fB\-h\fR.
|
|
.br
|
|
* \fB\-Y \-2\fR \- Do not disable output colors when redirected or piped to
|
|
another program. Useful if piping output to \fBless \-R\fR for example. This
|
|
does not limit the height otherwise since the expectation it is being piped to
|
|
another program like \fBless\fR which will handle that.
|
|
.br
|
|
* \fB\-Y \-3\fR \- Restore default unlimited output lines if \fBLINES_MAX\fR
|
|
configuration item set.
|
|
|
|
Recommended to use the following for very clean up and down scrollable output
|
|
out of display, while retaining the color schemes, which are normally removed
|
|
with piping or redirect:
|
|
|
|
\fBpinxi \-v8Y \-2 | less \-R\fR
|
|
|
|
Note: since it's not possible for inxi to know how many actual terminal lines
|
|
are being used by terminal wrapped output, with \fB\-y 1\fR , it may be better
|
|
in general to use a fixed height like:
|
|
|
|
\fB\-y 1 \-Y 20\fR instead of: \fB\-y 1 \-Y\fR
|
|
|
|
.SH EXTRA DATA OPTIONS
|
|
These options can be triggered by one or more \fB\-x\fR.
|
|
Alternatively, the \fB\-v\fR options trigger them in the following
|
|
way: \fB\-v 3\fR adds \fB\-x\fR;
|
|
\fB\-v 6\fR adds \fB\-xx\fR; \fB\-v 7\fR adds \fB\-xxx\fR
|
|
|
|
These extra data triggers can be useful for getting more in\-depth
|
|
data on various options. They can be added to any long form option list,
|
|
e.g.: \fB\-bxx\fR or \fB\-Sxxx\fR
|
|

\- Adds PCI/USB ID of each device.
|
|
|
|
\- Adds non-running sound servers, if detected.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-x \-B\fR
|
|
\- Adds vendor/model, battery status (if battery present).
|
|
|
|
\- Adds attached battery powered peripherals (\fBDevice\-[number]:\fR) if
|
|
detected (keyboard, mouse, etc.).
|
|
|
|
\- Adds battery \fBvolts:\fR, \fBmin:\fR voltages. Note that if difference is
|
|
critical, that is current voltage is too close to minimum voltage, shows without
|
|
\fB\-x\fR.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-x \-C\fR
|
|
\- Adds bogomips to CPU speed report (if available).
|
|
|
|
\- Adds \fBL1:\fR and \fBL3:\fR cache types if either are present/available. For
|
|
BSD or legacy Linux, uses dmidecode + doas/sudo/root. Force use of dmidecode
|
|
cache values by adding \fB\-\-dmidecode\fR. This will override /sys based cache
|
|
data, which tends to be better, so in general don't do that.
|
|
|
|
\- Adds \fBboost: [enabled|disabled]\fR if detected, aka \fBturbo\fR. Not all
|
|
CPUs have this feature.
|
|
|
|
\- Adds CPU Flags (short list). Use \fB\-f\fR to see full flag/feature list.
|
|
|
|
\- Adds CPU microarchitecture + revision (e.g. Sandy Bridge, K8, ARMv8, P6,
|
|
etc.). Only shows data if detected. Newer microarchitectures will have to be
|
|
added as they appear, and require the CPU family ID, model ID, and stepping.
|
|
|
|
\- Adds, if smt (Simultaneous MultiThreading) is available but disabled, after
|
|
\fBtype:\fR data \fBsmt: disabled\fR. \fBtype: MT\fR means it's enabled. See
|
|
\fB\-Cxxx\fR.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
.br
|
|
\fBarch: Sandy Bridge rev: 2\fR
|
|
.br
|
|
\fBarch: K8 rev.F+ rev: 2\fR
|
|
|
|
If unable to non\-ambiguosly determine architecture, will show something like:
|
|
\fBarch: Amber Lake note: check rev: 9\fR
|
|
|
|
\- Adds CPU highest speed after \fBavg: [speed] high: [speed]\fR if greater than
|
|
1 core and cores have different speeds. Linux only.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-x \-d\fR
|
|
\- Adds more items to \fBFeatures\fR line of optical drive;
|
|
dds rev version to optical drive.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-x \-D\fR
|
|
\- Adds HDD temperature with disk data.
|
|
|
|
Method 1: Systems running Linux kernels ~5.6 and newer should have
|
|
\fBdrivetemp\fR module data available. If so, drive temps will come from
|
|
/sys data for each drive, and will not require root or hddtemp. This method
|
|
is MUCH faster than using hddtemp. Note that NVMe drives do not require
|
|
\fBdrivetemp\fR.
|
|
|
|
If your \fBdrivetemp\fR module is not enabled, enable it:
|
|
|
|
\fBmodprobe drivetemp\fR
|
|
|
|
Once enabled, add \fBdrivetemp\fR to \fB/etc/modules\fR or
|
|
\fB/etc/modules\-load.d/***.conf\fR so it starts automatically.
|
|
|
|
If you see drive temps running as regular user and you did not configure system
|
|
to use doas/sudo hddtemp, then your system supports this feature. If no /sys
|
|
data is found, inxi will try to use hddtemp methods instead for that drive.
|
|
Hint: if temp is /sys sourced, the temp will be to 1 decimal, like 34.8, if
|
|
hddtemp sourced, they will be integers.
|
|
|
|
Method 2: if you have hddtemp installed, if you are root
|
|
or if you have added to \fB/etc/sudoers\fR (sudo v. 1.7 or newer):
|
|
|
|
.B <username> ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/hddtemp (sample)
|
|
|
|
doas users: see \fBman doas.conf\fR for setup.
|
|
|
|
You can force use of \fBhddtemp\fR for all drives using \fB\-\-hddtemp\fR.
|
|
|
|
\- If free LVM volume group size detected (root required), show \fBlvm-free:\fR
|
|
on Local Storage line. This is how much unused space the VGs contain, that is,
|
|
space not assigned to LVs.

\fBWayland:\fR requires any tool capable of showing monitor and resolution

\fBwayland\-info\fR can show Wayland information on any Wayland compositor, and

\fBwlr\-randr\fR can show Wayland information for any \fBwlroots\fR based

Further note that all references to \fBDisplays\fR, \fBScreens\fR, and

\fBMonitors\fR are referring to the \fBX\fR or \fBWayland\fR technical terms,
|
|
not normal consumer usage.

\fBX.org:\fR 1 \fBDisplay\fR runs 1 or more \fBScreens\fR, and 1 \fBScreen\fR

|
|
Monitors; Wayland: the Display that runs the monitors.

\- \fBX.org:\fR If available, shows \fBalternate:\fR Xorg drivers. This means a
|
|
driver on the default list of drivers Xorg automatically checks for the device,
|
|
but which is not installed. For example, if you have \fBnouveau\fR driver,
|
|
\fBnvidia\fR would show as alternate if it was not installed. Note that
|
|
\fBalternate:\fR does NOT mean you should have it, it's just one of the drivers
|
|
Xorg checks to see if is present and loaded when checking the device. This can
|
|
let you know there are other driver options. Note that if you have explicitly
|
|
set the driver in \fBxorg.conf\fR, Xorg will not create this automatic check
|
|
driver list.

\- \fBX.org:\fR Adds \fBScreen\fR line, which includes the ID (\fBScreen: 0\fR)
|

then \fBs-res\fR (Screen resolution), \fBs\-dpi\fR. Remember, this is an Xorg

\fBScreen\fR, NOT a monitor screen, and the information listed is about the Xorg
|
|
Screen! It may at times be the same as a single monitor system, but usually it's
|
|
different in some ways. Note that the physical monitor dpi and the Xorg dpi are
|
|
not necessarily the same thing, and can vary widely.

|
|
|
\- Adds \fBMonitor\fR lines. Monitors are a subset of a \fBScreen\fR (X.org) or
|
|
\fBDisplay\fR (Wayland), each of which can have one or more monitors. Normally a
|
|
dual monitor setup is 2 monitors run by one Xorg Screen/Wayland Display.

\- \fBpos: [primary,]{position string|row\-col}\fR (X.org: requires

\fBxrandr\fR; Wayland: requires \fBswaymsg\fR [sway], \fBwlr\-randr\fR [wlroots

\fBpos:\fR does not show for single monitor setups, or if no position data was

Position is text (left, center, center-l, center\-r, right, top, top\-left,
|
|
top\-center, top\-right, middle, middle\-c, middle\-r, bottom, bottom\-l,
|
|
bottom\-c, bottom\-r) if monitors fit within the following grids: 1x2, 1x3, 1x4,
|
|
2x1, 2x2, 2x3, 3x1, 3x2, 3x3. If layout not supported in text, uses
|
|
[row\-nu]\-[column\-nu] instead to indicate the monitor's position in its grid.
|
|
|
|
The position is based on the upper left corner of each monitor relative to the
|
|
grid of monitors that the \fBXorg\fR \fBScreen\fR is composed of.
|
|
|
|
\- \fBdiag:\fR monitor screen diagonal in mm (inches). Note that this is the

real monitor size, not the Xorg full Screen diagonal size, which can be quite

.SH ADMIN EXTRA DATA OPTIONS
|
|
These options are triggered with \fB\-\-admin\fR or \fB\-a\fR. Admin options
|
|
are advanced output options, and are more technical, and mostly of interest to
|
|
system administrators or other machine admins.
|
|
|
|
The \fB\-\-admin\fR option sets \fB\-xxx\fR, and only has to be used once.
|
|
It will trigger the following features:
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-a \-A\fR
|
|
\- Adds, if present, possible \fBalternate:\fR kernel modules capable of
|
|
driving each \fBDevice\-x\fR (not including the current \fBdriver:\fR). If no
|
|
non\-driver modules found, shows nothing. NOTE: just because it lists a module
|
|
does NOT mean it is available in the system, it's just something the kernel
|
|
knows could possibly be used instead.
|
|
|
|
\- Adds PCIe generation, and, if different than running PCIe generation, speed
|
|
or lanes, \fBlink\-max: gen: speed: lanes:\fR (only items different from primary
|
|
shown).
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-a \-C\fR
|
|
\- Adds CPU family, model\-id, and stepping (replaces \fBrev\fR of \fB\-Cx\fR).
|
|
Format is \fBhexadecimal (decimal)\fR if greater than 9, otherwise
|
|
\fBhexadecimal\fR.
|
|
|
|
\- Adds CPU microcode. Format is \fBhexadecimal\fR.
|
|
|
|
\- Adds socket type (for motherboard CPU socket, if available). If results
|
|
doubtful will list two socket types and \fBnote: check\fR. Requires
|
|
doas/sudo/root and \fBdmidecode\fR. The item in parentheses may simply be a
|
|
different syntax for the same socket, but in general, check this before trusting
|
|
it.
|
|
|
|
Sample: \fBsocket: 775 (478) note: check\fR
|
|
.br
|
|
Sample: \fBsocket: AM4\fR
|
|
|
|
\- Adds DMI CPU base and boost/turbo speeds. Requires doas/sudo/root and
|
|
\fBdmidecode\fR. In some cases, like with overclocking or 'turbo' or 'boost'
|
|
modes, voltage and external clock speeds may be increased, or short term limits
|
|
raised on max CPU speeds. These are often not reflected in /sys based CPU
|
|
\fBmin/max:\fR speed results, but often are using this source.
|
|
|
|
Samples:
|
|
.br
|
|
CPU not overclocked, with boost, like Ryzen:
|
|
.nf
|
|
\fBSpeed (MHz):
|
|
avg: 2861
|
|
high: 3250
|
|
min/max: 1550/3400
|
|
boost: enabled
|
|
base/boost: 3400/3900\fR
|
|
.fi
|
|
Overclocked 2900 MHz CPU, with no boost available:
|
|
.nf
|
|
\fBSpeed (MHz):
|
|
avg: 2345
|
|
high: 2900
|
|
min/max: 800/2900
|
|
base/boost: 3350/3000\fR
|
|
.fi
|
|
Overclocked 3000 MHz CPU, with boosted max speed:
|
|
.nf
|
|
\fBSpeed (MHz):
|
|
avg: 3260
|
|
high: 4190
|
|
min/max: 1200/3001
|
|
base/boost: 3000/4000\fR
|
|
.fi
|
|
|
|
Note that these numbers can be confusing, but basically, the \fBbase\fR
|
|
number is the actual normal top speed the CPU runs at without boost mode, and
|
|
the \fBboost\fR number is the max speed the CPU reports itself able to run at.
|
|
The actual max speed may be higher than either value, or lower. The \fBboost\fR
|
|
number appears to be hard\-coded into the CPU DMI data, and does not seem to
|
|
reflect actual max speeds that overclocking or other combinations of speed
|
|
boosters can enable, as you can see from the example where the CPU is running
|
|
at a speed faster than the min/max or base/boost values.
|
|
|
|
Note that the normal \fBmin/max:\fR speeds do NOT show actual overclocked OR
|
|
boost/turbo mode speeds, and appear to be hard\-coded values, not dynamic real
|
|
values. The \fBbase/boost:\fR values are sometimes real, and sometimes not.
|
|
\fBbase\fR appears in general to be real.
|
|
|
|
\- Adds frequency \fBscaling: governor:.. driver:..\fR if found/available. Also
|
|
adds scaling min/max speeds if different from standard CPU min/max spees (not
|
|
common).
|
|
|
|
\- Adds description of cache topology per cpu. Linux only.
|
|
|
|
\- Creates new \fBTopology:\fR line after the \fBInfo:\fR line. Moves cache data
|
|
to this line from \fBInfo:\fR line.
|
|
|
|
Topology line contains, if available and/or relevant: physical CPU count
|
|
(\fBcpus:\fR); per physical cpu core count (cores:\fR); threads per core, if > 1
|
|
(\fBtpc:\fR); how many \fBthreads:\fR (if more threads than cores); \fBdies:\fR
|
|
(rarely detected, but if so, if > 1); smt status (if no smt status found, shows
|
|
\fBN/A\fR).
|
|
|
|
If complex CPU type, like Alder lake, cores; will have a more granular breakdown
|
|
of how many mt (multi\-threaded) and how many st (single\-threaded) cores there
|
|
in the physical cpu ( \fBmt\-cores:\fR, \fBst\-cores:\fR); For complex CPU
|
|
types like ARM SoC devices with 2 CPU types, with different core counts and/or
|
|
\fBmin/max:\fR) frequencies, \fBvariant:\fR per type found, with relevant
|
|
differences shown, like \fBcores:, \fBmin/max:\fR, etc.

attributes that are or have been failing and print out the Attribute name,

Similar to \fB\-\-sensors\-use\fR except removes listed sensors from sensor
|
|
data. Make permanent with \fBSENSORS_EXCLUDE\fR configuration item. Note that
|
|
gpu, network, disk, and other specific device monitor chips are excluded by
|
|
default.
|

Example: \fBinxi \-sxx \-\-sensors\-exclude k10temp-pci-00c3\fR
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-sensors\-use\fR
|
|
Use only the (comma separated) sensor arrays for \fB\-s\fR output. Make
|
|
permanent with \fBSENSORS_USE\fR configuration item. Sensor array ID value
|
|
must be the exact value shown in lm\-sensors sensors output (Linux/lm-sensors
|
|
only). If you only want to exclude one (or more) sensors from the output,
|
|
use \fB\-\-sensors\-exclude\fR.
|
|
|
|
Can be useful if the default sensor data used by inxi is not from the right
|
|
sensor array. Note that all other sensor data will be removed, which may lead
|
|
to undesired consequences. Please be aware that this can lead to many
|
|
undesirable side\-effects, since default behavior is to use all the sensors
|
|
arrays and select which values to use from them following a set sequence of
|
|
rules. So if you force one to be used, you may lose data that was used from
|
|
another one.
|
|
|
|
Most likely best use is when one (or two) of the sensor arrays has all the
|
|
sensor data you want, and you just want to make sure inxi doesn't use data
|
|
from another array that has inaccurate or misleading data.
|
|
|
|
Note that gpu, network, disk, and other specific device monitor chips are
|
|
excluded by default, and should not be added since they do not provide cpu,
|
|
board, system, etc, sensor data.
|
|
|

|
|
.B \-\-sleep [0\-x.x]\fR
|
|
Usually in decimals. Change CPU sleep time for \fB\-C\fR (current: \fB\0.35\fR).
|
|
Sleep is used to let the system catch up and show a more accurate CPU use.
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
\fBinxi \-Cxxx \-\-sleep 0.15\fR
|
|
|

Overrides default internal value and user configuration value:
|
|
|
|
\fBCPU_SLEEP=0.25\fR

.TP
|
|
.B \-\-tty\fR
|
|
Forces internal IRC flag to off. Used in unhandled cases where the program
|
|
running inxi may not be seen as a shell/pty/tty, but it is not an IRC client.
|
|
Put \fB\-\-tty\fR first in option list to avoid unexpected errors. If you want
|
|
a specific output width, use the \fB\-\-width\fR option. If you want normal
|
|
color codes in the output, use the \fB\-c [color ID]\fR flag.
|
|
|
|
The sign you need to use this is extra numbers before the key/value pairs of
|
|
the output of your program. These are IRC, not TTY, color codes. Please post a
|
|
github issue if you find you need to use \fB\-\-tty\fR (including the full
|
|
\fB\-Ixxx\fR line) so we can figure out how to add your program to the list of
|
|
whitelisted programs.
|
|
|
|
You can see what inxi believed started it in the \fB\-Ixxx\fR line,
|
|
\fBShell:\fR or \fBClient:\fR item. Please let us know what that result was
|
|
so we can add it to the parent start program whitelist.
|
|
|
|
In some cases, you may want to also use \fB\-\-no\-filter\fR/\fB\-Z\fR option if
|
|
you want to see filtered values. Filtering is turned on by default if \fBinxi\fR
|
|
believes it is running in an IRC client.

.SH RUNNING IN IRC CLIENT
|
|
To trigger inxi output in your IRC client, pick the appropriate method from the
|
|
list below:
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Hexchat, XChat, Irssi
|
|
\fR(and many other IRC clients)
|
|
.B /exec \-o inxi \fR[\fBoptions\fR]
|
|
If you don't include the \fB\-o\fR, only you will see the output on your local
|
|
IRC client.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Konversation
|
|
.B /cmd inxi
|
|
\fR[\fBoptions\fR]
|
|
|
|
To run inxi in Konversation as a native script if your distribution or inxi
|
|
package hasn't already done this for you, create this symbolic link:
|
|
|
|
KDE 4:
|
|
.B ln \-s /usr/local/bin/inxi /usr/share/kde4/apps/konversation/scripts/inxi
|
|
|
|
KDE 5:
|
|
.B ln \-s /usr/local/bin/inxi /usr/share/konversation/scripts/inxi
|
|
|
|
If inxi is somewhere else, change the path \fB/usr/local/bin\fR to wherever it
|
|
is located.
|
|
|
|
If you are using KDE/QT 5, then you may also need to add the following to get
|
|
the Konversation \fR/inxi\fR command to work:
|
|
|
|
.B ln \-s /usr/share/konversation /usr/share/apps/
|
|
|
|
Then you can start inxi directly, like this:
|
|
|
|
.B /inxi
|
|
\fR[\fBoptions\fR]
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B WeeChat
|
|
.B NEW: /exec \-o inxi
|
|
\fR[\fBoptions\fR]
|
|
|
|
.B OLD: /shell \-o inxi
|
|
\fR[\fBoptions\fR]
|
|
|
|
Newer (2014 and later) WeeChats work pretty much the same now as other console
|
|
IRC clients, with \fB/exec \-o inxi \fR[\fBoptions\fR]. Newer WeeChats
|
|
have dropped the \fB\-curses\fR part of their program name, i.e.:
|
|
\fBweechat\fR instead of \fBweechat\-curses\fR.
|
|
|
|
.SH CONFIGURATION FILE
|
|
inxi will read its configuration/initialization files in the
|
|
following order:
|
|
|
|
\fB/etc/inxi.conf\fR contains the default configurations. These can be
|
|
overridden by creating a \fB/etc/inxi.d/inxi.conf\fR file (global override,
|
|
which will prevent distro packages from changing or overwriting your edits. This
|
|
method is recommended if you are using a distro packaged inxi and want to
|
|
override some configuration items from the package's default
|
|
\fB/etc/inxi.conf\fR file but don't want to lose your changes on a package
|
|
update.
|
|
|
|
You can old override, per user, with a user configuration file found in one of
|
|
the following locations (inxi will store its config file using the following
|
|
precedence:
|
|
|
|
if \fB$XDG_CONFIG_HOME\fR is not empty, it will go there, else if
|
|
\fB$HOME/.conf/inxi.conf\fR exists, it will go there, and as a last default,
|
|
the legacy location is used), i.e.:
|
|
|
|
\fB$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/inxi.conf\fR > \fB$HOME/.conf/inxi.conf\fR >

.B Basic Options
|
|
Here's a brief overview of the basic options you are likely to want to use:
|
|
|
|
\fBCOLS_MAX_CONSOLE\fR The max display column width on terminal. If
|
|
terminal/console width or \fB\-\-width\fR is less than wrap width, wrapping of
|
|
line starter occurs
|
|
|
|
\fBCOLS_MAX_IRC\fR The max display column width on IRC clients.
|
|
|
|
\fBCOLS_MAX_NO_DISPLAY\fR The max display column width in out of X / Wayland /
|
|
desktop / window manager.
|
|
|
|
\fBCPU_SLEEP\fR Decimal value \fB0\fR or more. Default is usually around
|
|
\fB0.35\fR seconds. Time that inxi will 'sleep' before getting CPU speed data,
|
|
so that it reflects actual system state.
|
|
|
|
\fBDOWNLOADER\fR Sets default inxi downloader: curl, fetch, ftp, perl, wget.
|
|
See \fB\-\-recommends\fR output for more information on downloaders and Perl
|
|
downloaders.
|
|
|
|
\fBFILTER_STRING\fR Default \fB<filter>\fR. Any string you prefer to see
|
|
instead for filtered values.
|
|
|
|
\fBINDENT\fR Change primary indent width of wide mode output. See
|
|
\fB\-\-indent\fR.
|
|
|
|
\fBINDENTS\fR Change primary indents of narrow wrapped mode output, and second
|
|
level indents. See \fB\-\-indents\fR.
|
|
|
|
\fBLIMIT\fR Overrides default of \fB10\fR IP addresses per IF. This is only of
|
|
interest to sys admins running servers with many IP addresses.
|
|
|
|
\fBLINES_MAX\fR Values: [\-2\-xxx]. See \fB\-Y\fR for explanation and values.
|
|
Use \fB\-Y \-3\fR to restore default unlimited output lines. Avoid using this in
|
|
general unless the machine is a headless system and you want the output to be
|
|
always controlled.
|
|
|
|
\fBMAX_WRAP\fR (or \fBWRAP_MAX\fR) The maximum width where the line starter
|
|
wraps to its own line. If terminal/console width or \fB\-\-width\fR is less than
|
|
wrap width, wrapping of line starter occurs. Overrides default. See
|
|
\fB\-\-max\-wrap\fR. If \fB80\fR or less, wrap will never happen.
|
|
|
|
\fBNO_DIG\fR Set to \fB1\fR or \fBtrue\fR to disable WAN IP use of \fBdig\fR
|
|
and force use of alternate downloaders.
|
|
|
|
\fBNO_DOAS\fR Set to \fB1\fR or \fBtrue\fR to disable internal use of
|
|
\fBdoas\fR.
|
|
|
|
\fBNO_HTML_WAN\fR Set to \fB1\fR or \fBtrue\fR to disable WAN IP use of
|
|
\fBHTML Downloaders\fR and force use of dig only, or nothing if dig disabled
|
|
as well. Same as \fB\-\-no\-html\-wan\fR. Only use if dig is failing, and
|
|
HTML downloaders are hanging.
|
|
|
|
\fBNO_SUDO\fR Set to \fB1\fR or \fBtrue\fR to disable internal use of
|
|
\fBsudo\fR.
|
|
|
|
\fBPARTITION_SORT\fR Overrides default partition output sort. See
|
|
\fB\-\-partition\-sort\fR for options.
|
|
|
|
\fBPS_COUNT\fR The default number of items showing per \fB\-t\fR type, \fBm\fR
|
|
or \fBc\fR. Default is 5.
|
|
|
|
\fBSENSORS_CPU_NO\fR In cases of ambiguous temp1/temp2 (inxi can't figure out
|
|
which is the CPU), forces sensors to use either value 1 or 2 as CPU
|
|
temperature. See the above configuration page on smxi.org for full info.
|
|
|
|
\fBSENSORS_EXCLUDE\fR Exclude supplied sensor array[s] from sensor output.
|
|
Override with \fB\-\-sensors\-default\fR. See \fB\-\-sensors\-exclude\fR.
|
|
|
|
\fBSENSORS_USE\fR Use only supplied sensor array[s]. Override with
|
|
\fB\-\-sensors\-default\fR. See \fB\-\-sensors\-use\fR.
|
|
|
|
\fBSEP2_CONSOLE\fR Replaces default key / value separator of '\fB:\fR'.
|
|
|
|
\fBUSB_SYS\fR Forces all USB data to use \fB/sys\fR instead of \fBlsusb\fR.
|
|
|
|
\fBWAN_IP_URL\fR Forces \fB\-i\fR to use supplied URL, and to not use dig
|
|
(dig is generally much faster). URL must begin with http or ftp. Note that if
|
|
you use this, the downloader set tests will run each time you start inxi
|
|
whether a downloader feature is going to be used or not.
|
|
|
|
The IP address from the URL must be the last item on the last (non\-empty)
|
|
line of the URL's page content source code.
|
|
|
|
Same as \fB\-\-wan\-ip\-url [URL]\fR
|
|
|
|
\fBWEATHER_SOURCE\fR Values: [\fB0-9\fR]. Same as \fB\-\-weather\-source\fR.
|
|
Values 4\-9 are not currently supported, but this can change at any time.
|
|
|
|
\fBWEATHER_UNIT\fR Values: [\fBm\fR|\fBi\fR|\fBmi\fR|\fBim\fR]. Same as
|
|
\fB\-\-weather\-unit\fR.

.B Color Options
|
|
It's best to use the \fB\-c [94\-99]\fR color selector tool to set the
|
|
following values because it will correctly update the configuration file and
|
|
remove any invalid or conflicting items, but if you prefer to create your own
|
|
configuration files, here are the options. All take the integer value from the
|
|
options available in \fB\-c 94\-99\fR.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: All default and configuration file set color values are removed when
|
|
output is piped or redirected. You must use the explicit
|
|
\fB\-c <color number>\fR option if you want colors to be present in the
|
|
piped/redirected output (creating a PDF for example).
|
|
|
|
\fBCONSOLE_COLOR_SCHEME\fR The color scheme for console output (not in
|
|
X/Wayland).
|
|
|
|
\fBGLOBAL_COLOR_SCHEME\fR Overrides all other color schemes.
|
|
|
|
\fBIRC_COLOR_SCHEME\fR Desktop X/Wayland IRC CLI color scheme.
|
|
|
|
\fBIRC_CONS_COLOR_SCHEME\fR Out of X/Wayland, IRC CLI color scheme.
|
|
|
|
\fBIRC_X_TERM_COLOR_SCHEME\fR In X/Wayland IRC client terminal color scheme.
|
|
|
|
\fBVIRT_TERM_COLOR_SCHEME\fR Color scheme for virtual terminal output (in
|
|
X/Wayland).

.SH BUGS
|
|
Please report bugs using the following resources.
|
|
|
|
You may be asked to run the inxi debugger tool (see \fB\-\-debug 21/22\fR),
|
|
which will upload a data dump of system files for use in debugging inxi. These
|
|
data dumps are very important since they provide us with all the real system
|
|
data inxi uses to parse out its report.

.SH SPECIAL THANKS TO THE FOLLOWING
|
|
|
|
The nice people at irc.oftc.net channels #linux\-smokers\-club and #smxi, who
|
|
all really have to be considered to be co\-developers because of their non\-stop
|
|
enthusiasm and willingness to provide real\-time testing and debugging of inxi
|
|
development over the years.
|
|
|
|
LinuxQuestions.org Slackware forum members, for major help with development and
|
|
debugging new or refactored features, particularly the redone CPU logic of
|
|
2021\-12.
|
|
|
|
Siduction forum members, who have helped get some features working by providing
|
|
a large number of datasets that have revealed possible variations, particularly
|
|
for the RAM \fB\-m\fR option.
|
|
|
|
AntiX users and admins, who have helped greatly with testing and debugging,
|
|
particularly for the 3.0.0 release.
|
|
|
|
ArcherSeven (Max), Brett Bohnenkamper (aka KittyKatt), and Iotaka, who always
|
|
manage to find the weirdest or most extreme hardware and setups that help make
|
|
inxi much more robust.
|
|
|
|
For the vastly underrated skill of output error/glitch catching, Pete Haddow.
|
|
His patience and focus in going through inxi repeatedly to find errors and
|
|
inconsistencies is much appreciated.
|
|
|
|
For a huge boost to BSD support, Stan Vandiver, who did a lot of testing
|
|
and setup many remote access systems for testing and development.
|
|
|
|
All the inxi package maintainers, distro support people, forum moderators,
|
|
and in particular, sys admins with their particular issues, which almost always
|
|
help make inxi better, and any others who contribute ideas, suggestions, and
|
|
patches.
|
|
|
|
Without a wide range of diverse Linux kernel\-based Free Desktop systems to
|
|
test on, we could never have gotten inxi to be as reliable and solid as it's
|
|
turning out to be.
|
|
|
|
And of course, a big thanks to locsmif, who figured out a lot of the core
|
|
ideas, logic, and tricks originally used in inxi Gawk/Bash.
