    25 .SH NAME

    26 ogl-select \- boot time selection of OpenGL vendor files 

    27 .PP

    28 .SH DESCRIPTION

    29 .I ogl-select

    30 is a service for the Service Management Facility (SMF) under

    31 the identifier \fIsvc:/application/opengl/ogl-select\fP

    32 that determines at boot time which vendor supplied OpenGL headers

    33 and libraries will be used.  The selection of the OpenGL vendor

    34 should be automatic and in most cases will not require any

    35 configuration.  However, for system configurations with special

    36 needs a property can be used to select the vendor.  The property

    37 is described in the SMF PROPERTIES section below. 

    38 .PP

    39 The SMF method performs the automatic probe by querying the

    40 device driver attached to the primary framebuffer device, /dev/fb.

    41 If the name reported by the driver matches the value advertised

    42 by a vendor registry, the rules in the vendor registry will be

    43 used to select the OpenGL headers and libraries.  The name reported

    44 by the driver can be verfied with \fIconstype\fP(1).  If the system

    45 configuration does not match the desired OpenGL vendor, a SMF

    46 property can be used to force the vendor selection.

    47 .SH SMF PROPERTIES

    48 .PP

    49 Configuration properties for \fBogl-select\fP program are

    50 managed by the service management facility, \fBsmf\fR(5), under the service 

    51 identifier:

    52 .PP

    53 .nf

    54 svc:/application/opengl/ogl-select

    55 .fi

    56 Use \fBsvccfg\fR(1M) to make configuration changes and to view configuration 

    57 information for this service\&. 

    58 .PP

    59 These properties may be set for ogl-select:

    60 .TP

    61 .B options/vendor 

    62 (Type astring) The vendor tag to use for selecting the OpenGL headers

    63 and libraries, overriding the results of the automatic probe.  Available

    64 vendors can be found with 'ls /lib/opengl/ogl_select/*_vendor_select'.

    65 If the property is set to an unknown vendor tag, the method will default

    66 to "mesa".  Setting the property to "" or "notset" causes it to be ignored

    67 and the results of the automatic probe are used instead.  The default

    68 value is "notset".
