Ah. You're just looking for a way to tag a particular video card for user/program configuration option purposes. Re-reading your original email, it looks like you already rejected "do it by screen number", and seem to be looking for a more hardware-level identifier. So, why not do it by PCI vendor/devid ? That sort of information is visible from the DRI level, I believe. I think its just another Xserver internal call, isnt it? ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
