163 In the instructions below, all the available drivers are built. That
164 will almost always work. However, it is not efficient. Depending on
165 your video hardware, you probably need only specific drivers.
166 </para>
167
168 <para>
169 The first thing you need to know is which type of video device you
[de36458]170 have. In some cases it is built into the CPU. In others it is a
[87a677a]171 separate PCI card. In either case you can tell what video hardware you
[68df8455]172 have by installing <xref linkend='pciutils'/> and running:
[87a677a]173 </para>
174
[68df8455]175 <screen role='nodump'><userinput>lspci | grep VGA</userinput></screen>
[87a677a]176
177 <para>
178 The video device is most likely one of three families: AMD, Intel, or
[68df8455]179 Nvidia. See the Command Explanations for
180 <parameter>-D gallium-drivers=auto</parameter> below to
[87a677a]181 see what options are available for your specific video hardware (or
182 emulated video hardware). You should probably add the swrast option as
183 a backup driver.
184 </para>
185
186 <para>
187 For 'platforms' you can select x11 and/or wayland. Note that in BLFS
188 currently only Gnome and KDE can use wayland. If you are not going to
189 use one of those desktop environments then you probably only want x11.
190 </para>
191
192 <para>
193 For 'vulkan-drivers' you may want to limit the selection to your
194 current hardware. These drivers are used by some specific applications.
195
196 For example, ffmpeg (including ffplay) will use Vulkan instead of
197 OpenGL for rendering video on the GPU. If you do not want to do this
198 you may or may not want to install them.
[68df8455]199 See the Command Explanations for
200 <parameter>-D vulkan-drivers=auto</parameter> below to
201 see what options are available for your specific video hardware (or
202 emulated video hardware). You should probably add the swrast option
203 as a backup driver unless you don't need Vulkan at all.
