    24 .SH NAME

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

    26 .PP

    27 .SH DESCRIPTION

    28 .I ogl-select

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

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

    31 that determines at boot time which vendor supplied OpenGL headers

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

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

    34 configuration.  However, for system configurations with special

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

    36 is described in the SMF PROPERTIES section below. 

    37 .PP

    38 The SMF method performs the automatic probe by querying the

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

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

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

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

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

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

    45 property can be used to force the vendor selection.

    46 .SH SMF PROPERTIES

    47 .PP

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

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

    50 identifier:

    51 .PP

    52 .nf

    53 svc:/application/opengl/ogl-select

    54 .fi

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

    56 information for this service\&. 

    57 .PP

    58 These properties may be set for ogl-select:

    59 .TP

    60 .B options/vendor 

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

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

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

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

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

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

    67 value is "notset".
