.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.

.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.

.TP
.B \-\-bluetooth\fR \- See \fB\-E\fR

.TP
.B \-c\fR,\fB \-\-color\fR \fR[\fB0\fR\-\fB42\fR]
Set color scheme. If no scheme number is supplied, 0 is assumed.

.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.

Color selectors for each type display (NOTE: IRC and global only show safe 
color set):

.TP
.B \-c 94\fR
\- Console, out of X.

.TP
.B \-c 95\fR
\- Terminal, running in X \- like xTerm.

.TP
.B \-c 96\fR
\- GUI IRC, running in X \- like XChat, Quassel,
Konversation etc.

.TP
.B \-c 97\fR
\- Console IRC running in X \- like irssi in xTerm.

.TP
.B \-c 98\fR
\- Console IRC not in X.

.TP
.B \-c 99\fR
\- Global \- Overrides/removes all settings.

Setting a specific color type removes the global color selection.

.TP
.B \-C\fR,\fB \-\-cpu\fR
Show full CPU output, including per CPU clock speed and CPU max speed (if 
available). If max speed data present, shows \fB(max)\fR in short output 
formats (\fBinxi\fR, \fBinxi \-b\fR) if actual CPU speed matches max CPU 
speed. If max CPU speed does not match actual CPU speed, shows both actual 
and max speed information. See \fB\-x\fR for more options.

For certain CPUs (some ARM, and AMD Zen family) shows CPU die count.

The details for each CPU include a technical description e.g. \fBtype: MT 
MCP\fR

* \fBMT\fR \- Multi/Hyper Threaded CPU, more than 1 thread per core 
(previously \fBHT\fR).

* \fBMCM\fR \- Multi Chip Model (more than 1 die per CPU).

* \fBMCP\fR \- Multi Core Processor (more than 1 core per CPU).

* \fBSMP\fR \- Symmetric Multi Processing (more than 1 physical CPU).

* \fBUP\fR \- Uni (single core) Processor.

Note that \fBmin/max:\fR speeds are not necessarily true in cases of 
overclocked CPUs or CPUs in turbo/boost mode. See \fB\-Ca\fR for alternate 
\fBbase/boost:\fR speed data.

.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

or

\fBrfkill list bluetooth\fR

\fBrfkill unblock bluetooth\fR

.TP
.B \-\-filter\fR,\fB \-\-filter\-override\fR \- See \fB\-z\fR, \fB\-Z\fR.

.TP
.B \-\-filter\-label\fR
Filter partition label names from \fB\-j\fR, \fB\-o\fR, \fB\-p\fR, 
\fB\-P\fR, and \fB\-Sa\fR (root=LABEL=...). Generally only useful in 
very specialized cases.

.TP
.B \-\-filter\-uuid\fR
Filter partition UUIDs from \fB\-j\fR, \fB\-o\fR, \fB\-p\fR, 
\fB\-P\fR, and \fB\-Sa\fR (root=UUID=...). Generally only useful in 
very specialized cases.

.TP
.B \-f\fR,\fB \-\-flags\fR
Show all CPU flags used, not just the short list. Not shown with \fB\-F\fR 
in order to avoid spamming. ARM CPUs: show \fBfeatures\fR items.

.TP
.B \-F\fR,\fB \-\-full\fR
Show Full output for inxi. Includes all Upper Case line letters (except 
\fB\-J\fR and \fB\-W\fR) plus \fB\-\-swap\fR, \fB\-s\fR and \fB\-n\fR. Does 
not show extra verbose options such as \fB\-d \-f \-i -J \-l \-m \-o \-p \-r 
\-t \-u \-x\fR unless you use those arguments in the command, e.g.: 
\fBinxi \-Frmxx\fR

.TP
.B \-G\fR,\fB \-\-graphics\fR
Show Graphic device(s) information, including details of device and display 
drivers (\fBloaded:\fR, and, if applicable: \fBunloaded:\fR, \fBfailed:\fR), 
display protocol (if available), display server (and/or Wayland compositor), 
vendor and version number, e.g.:

\fBDisplay: x11 server: Xorg 1.15.1\fR

If protocol is not detected, shows:

\fBDisplay: server: Xorg 1.15.1\fR

Also shows screen resolution(s) (per monitor/X screen), OpenGL renderer, 
OpenGL core profile version/OpenGL version.

Compositor information will show if detected using \fB\-xx\fR option
or always if detected and Wayland.

.TP
.B \-h\fR,\fB \-\-help\fR
The help menu. Features dynamic sizing to fit into terminal window. Set script
global \fBCOLS_MAX_CONSOLE\fR if you want a different default value, or
use \fB\-y <width>\fR to temporarily override the defaults or actual window 
width.

.TP
.B \-i\fR,\fB \-\-ip\fR
Show WAN IP address and local interfaces (latter requires \fBifconfig\fR or
\fBip\fR network tool), as well as network output from \fB\-n\fR.
Not shown with \fB\-F\fR for user security reasons. You shouldn't paste your
local/WAN IP. Shows both IPv4 and IPv6 link IP addresses.

.TP
.B \-I\fR,\fB \-\-info\fR
Show Information: processes, uptime, memory, IRC client (or shell type if run 
in shell, not IRC), inxi version. See \fB\-Ix\fR, \fB\-Ixx\fR, and \fB\-Ia\fR
for extra information (init type/version, runlevel, packages). 

Note: if \fB\-m\fR is used or triggered, the memory item will show in the main
Memory: report of \fB\-m\fR, not in \fB\Info:\fR.

Raspberry Pi only: uses \fBvcgencmd get_mem gpu\fR to get gpu RAM amount, 
if user is in video group and \fBvcgencmd\fR is installed. Uses 
this result to increase the \fBMemory:\fR amount and \fBused:\fR amounts.

.TP
.B \-j\fR, \fB\-\-swap\fR
Shows all active swap types (partition, file, zram). When this option is used,
swap partition(s) will not show on the \fB\-P\fR line to avoid redundancy.

To show partition labels or UUIDs (when available and relevant), use with 
\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[BSDs]/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.

Sample:

\fBDevice\-10: mybackup type: LUKS dm: dm\-28 size: 6.36 GiB Components: 
c\-1: md1 cc\-1: dm\-26 ppp\-1: sdj2 cc\-2: dm\-27 ppp\-1: sdk2\fR

.nf
\fBLV\-5: lvm_raid1 type: raid1 dm: dm\-16 size: 4.88 GiB 
RAID: stripes: 2 sync: idle copied: 100% mismatches: 0 
Components: c\-1: dm\-10 pp\-1: sdd1 c\-2: dm\-11 pp\-1: sdd1 c\-3: dm\-13 
pp\-1: sde1 c\-4: dm\-15 pp\-1: sde1\fR
.fi

It is easier to follow the flow of components and devices using \fB\-y1\fR. In
this example, there is one primary component (c\-1), md1, which is made up of 
two components (cc\-1,2), dm\-26 and dm\-27. These are respectively made from 
physical devices (p\-1) sdj2 and sdk2.

.nf
\fBDevice\-10: mybackup
  maj\-min: 254:28
  type: LUKS
  dm: dm\-28
  size: 6.36 GiB
  Components: 
    c\-1: md1
    maj\-min: 9:1
    size: 6.37 GiB
    cc\-1: dm\-26
      maj\-min: 254:26
      mapped: vg5\-level1a
      size: 12.28 GiB
      ppp\-1: sdj2
        maj\-min: 8:146
        size: 12.79 GiB
    cc\-2: dm\-27
      maj\-min: 254:27
      mapped: vg5\-level1b
      size: 6.38 GiB
      ppp\-1: sdk2
        maj\-min: 8:162
        size: 12.79 GiB\fR
.fi

Other types of logical block handling like LUKS, bcache show as:

\fBDevice\-[xx] [name/id] type: [LUKS|Crypto|bcache]:\fR

.TP
.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 \fBsudo\fR), unless you figure out how to set up 
doas[BSDs]/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: 
\fBnote: check\fR. Sample:

.nf
\fBMemory:
  RAM: total: 31.38 GiB used: 20.65 GiB (65.8%) 
  Array\-1: capacity: N/A slots: 4 note: check EC: N/A 
  Device\-1: DIMM_A1 size: 8 GiB speed: 1600 MT/s (800 MHz) 
  Device\-2: DIMM_A2 size: 8 GiB speed: spec: 1600 MT/s (800 MHz) 
  actual: 61910 MT/s (30955 MHz) note: check 
  Device\-3: DIMM_B1 size: 8 GiB speed: 1600 MT/s (800 MHz) 
  Device\-4: DIMM_B2 size: 8 GiB speed: spec: 1600 MT/s (800 MHz) 
  actual: 2 MT/s (1 MHz) note: check\fR
.fi

See \fB\-\-memory\-modules\fR and \fB\-\-memory\-short\fR if you want a 
shorter report.

.TP
.B \-\-memory\-modules\fR
Memory (RAM) data. Show only RAM arrays and modules in Memory report. 
Skip empty slots. See \fB\-m\fR.

.TP
.B \-\-memory\-short\fR
Memory (RAM) data. Show a one line RAM report in Memory. See \fB\-m\fR.

Sample: \fBReport: arrays: 1 slots: 4 modules: 2 type: DDR4\fR

.TP
.B \-M\fR,\fB \-\-machine\fR
Show machine data. Device, Motherboard, BIOS, and if present, System Builder 
(Like Lenovo). Older systems/kernels without the required \fB/sys\fR data can 
use \fBdmidecode\fR instead, run as root. If using \fBdmidecode\fR, may also 
show BIOS/UEFI revision as well as version. \fB\-\-dmidecode\fR forces use of 
\fBdmidecode\fR data instead of \fB/sys\fR. Will also attempt to show if the 
system was booted by BIOS, UEFI, or UEFI [Legacy], the latter being legacy 
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 
be correctly detected. If you get an incorrect output, post an issue and we'll 
get it fixed if possible.

Due to unreliable vendor data, device type will show: desktop, laptop, 
notebook, server, blade, plus some obscure stuff that inxi is unlikely to 
ever run on.

.TP
.B \-n\fR,\fB \-\-network\-advanced\fR
Show Advanced Network device information in addition to that produced by 
\fB\-N\fR. Shows interface, speed, MAC ID, state, etc.

shows Bus ID, Port number.

.TP
.B \-o\fR,\fB \-\-unmounted\fR
Show unmounted partition information (includes UUID and LABEL if available).
Shows file system type if you have \fBlsblk\fR installed (Linux only). For 
BSD/GNU Linux: shows file system type if \fBfile\fR is installed, and 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/bin/file (sample)

BSD users: see \fBman doas.conf\fR for setup.

Does not show components (partitions that create the md\-raid array) of

Show basic Partition information.
Shows, if detected: \fB/ /boot /boot/efi /home /opt /tmp /usr /usr/home /var 
/var/tmp /var/log\fR (for android, shows \fB/cache /data /firmware /system\fR). 
If \fB\-\-swap\fR is not used, shows active swap partitions (never shows file 
or zram type swap). Use \fB\-p\fR to see all mounted partitions.

To show partition labels or UUIDs (when available and relevant), use with

show us how to get this information and we'll try to add it.

See \fB\-rx\fR, \fB\-rxx\fR, and \fB\-ra\fR for installed package count 
information.

.TP
.B \-R\fR,\fB \-\-raid\fR
Show RAID data. Shows RAID devices, states, levels, device/array size,
and components. See extra data with \fB\-x\fR / \fB\-xx\fR.

md\-raid: If device is resyncing, also shows resync progress line.

Note: supported types: lvm raid, md\-raid, softraid, ZFS, and hardware RAID. 
Other software RAID types may be added, if the software RAID can be made to 
give the required output.

The component ID numbers work like this: mdraid: the numerator is the actual 
mdraid component number; lvm/softraid/ZFS: the numerator is auto\-incremented 
counter only. Eg. \fBOnline: 1: sdb1\fR

If hardware RAID is detected, shows basic information. Due to complexity
of adding hardware RAID device disk / RAID reports, those will only be added 
if there is demand, and reasonable reporting tools. 

.TP
.B \-\-recommends\fR
Checks inxi application dependencies and recommends, as well as directories,
then shows what package(s) you need to install to add support for each feature.

.TP
.B \-s\fR,\fB \-\-sensors\fR
Show output from sensors if sensors installed/configured: Motherboard/CPU/GPU
temperatures; detected fan speeds. GPU temperature when available. Nvidia shows
screen number for multiple screens. IPMI sensors are also used (root required)
if present. See Advanced options \fB\-\-sensors\-use\fR or 
\fB\-\-sensors\-exclude\fR if you want to use only a subset of all sensors, or
exclude one.

[\fBc\fR|\fBm\fR|\fBcm\fR|\fBmc NUMBER\fR] Show processes. If no arguments, 
defaults to \fBcm\fR. If followed by a number, shows that number of processes 
for each type (default: \fB5\fR; if in IRC, max: \fB5\fR)

Make sure that there is no space between letters and numbers (e.g. write as 
\fB\-t cm10\fR).

.TP
.B \-t c\fR
\- CPU only. With \fB\-x\fR, also shows memory for that process on same line.

.TP
.B \-t m\fR
\- memory only. With \fB\-x\fR, also shows CPU for that process on same line.
If the \fB\-I\fR or \fB\-m\fR lines are not triggered, will also show the 
system RAM used/total information.

.TP
.B \-t cm\fR
\- CPU+memory. With \fB\-x\fR, shows also CPU or memory for that process on
same line.

.TP
.B \-u\fR,\fB \-\-uuid\fR
Show partition UUIDs. 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\-opju\fR.

.TP
.B \-U\fR,\fB \-\-update\fR
Note \- Maintainer may have disabled this function.

If inxi \fB\-h\fR has no listing for \fB\-U\fR then it's disabled.

Auto\-update script. Note: if you installed as root, you must be root to
update, otherwise user is fine. Also installs / updates this man page to:
\fB/usr/local/share/man/man1\fR (if \fB/usr/local/share/man/\fR exists
AND there is no inxi man page in \fB/usr/share/man/man1\fR, otherwise it
goes to \fB/usr/share/man/man1\fR). This requires that you be root to write
to that directory. See \fB\-\-man\fR or \fB\-\-no\-man\fR to force or disable 
man install.

.TP
.B \-\-usb\fR \- See \fB\-J\fR

.TP
.B \-V\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR

PCI slots (\fB\-\-slots\fR), processes (\fB\-tcm\fR), admin (\fB\-\-admin\fR). 
Useful for testing output and to see what data you can get from your system.

.TP
.B \-w\fR,\fB \-\-weather\fR
Adds weather line. To get weather for an alternate location, use
\fB\-W [location]\fR. See also \fB\-x\fR, \fB\-xx\fR, \fB\-xxx\fR options.
Please note that your distribution's maintainer may chose to disable this 
feature.

DO NOT USE THIS FEATURE FOR AUTOMATED WEATHER UPDATES! Automated or excessive 
use will lead to your being blocked from any further access. This feature is not 
meant for widget type weather monitoring, or Conky type use. It is meant to get 
weather when you need to see it, for example, on a remote server. If you did not
type the weather option in manually, it's an automated request. 

.TP
.B \-W\fR, \fB\-\-weather\-location <location_string>\fR
Get weather/time for an alternate location. Accepts postal/zip code[, country], 
city,state pair, or latitude,longitude. Note: city/country/state names must 
not contain spaces. Replace spaces with '\fB+\fR' sign. Don't place spaces 
around any commas. Postal code is not reliable except for North America and 
maybe the UK. Try postal codes with and without country code added. Note that 
City,State applies only to USA, otherwise it's City,Country. If country name 
(english) does not work, try 2 character country code (e.g. Spain: es; 
Great Britain: gb). 

See \fIhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166\-1_alpha\-2\fR for current 2 
letter country codes.

Use only ASCII letters in city/state/country names.

Examples: \fB\-W 95623,us\fR OR \fB\-W Boston,MA\fR OR 
\fB\-W 45.5234,\-122.6762\fR OR \fB\-W new+york,ny\fR OR \fB\-W bodo,norway\fR.

.TP
.B \-\-weather\-source\fR, \fB\-\-ws <unit>\fR
[\fB1\-9\fR] Switches weather data source. Possible values are \fB1\-9\fR. 
\fB1\-4\fR will generally be active, and \fB5\-9\fR may or may not be active, 
so check. \fB1\fR may not support city / country names with spaces (even if 
you use the \fB+\fR sign instead of space). \fB2\fR offers pretty good data, 
but may not have all small city names for \fB\-W\fR. 

Please note that the data sources are not static per value, and can change any 
time, or be removed, so always test to verify which source is being used for 
each value if that is important to you. Data sources may be added or removed 
on occasions, so try each one and see which you prefer. If you get unsupported 
source message, it means that number has not been implemented.

.TP
.B \-\-weather\-unit <unit>\fR
[\fBm\fR|\fBi\fR|\fBmi\fR|\fBim\fR] Sets weather units to metric (\fBm\fR), 
imperial (\fBi\fR), metric (imperial) (\fBmi\fR, default), imperial (metric) 
(\fBim\fR). If metric or imperial not found,sets to default value, or \fBN/A\fR.

.TP
.B \-y\fR,\fB \-\-width [integer]\fR
This is an absolute width override which sets the output line width max.
Overrides \fBCOLS_MAX_IRC\fR / \fBCOLS_MAX_CONSOLE\fR globals, or the
actual widths of the terminal. \fB80\fR is the minimum width supported. 
\fB\-1\fR removes width limits. 1 switches to a single indented key/value 
pair per line, and removes all long line wrapping (similar to 
\fBdmidecode\fR output).

If no integer value is given, sets width to default of 80. 

Examples: \fBinxi \-Fxx\ \-y 130\fR or \fBinxi \-Fxxy\fR or \fBinxi \-bay1\fR

.TP
.B \-z\fR,\fB \-\-filter\fR
Adds security filters for IP addresses, serial numbers, MAC, 
location (\fB\-w\fR), and user home directory name. Removes Host:.
On by default for IRC clients.

.TP
.B \-Z\fR,\fB \-\-filter\-override\fR
Absolute override for output filters. Useful for debugging networking
issues in IRC for example.

.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

There are 3 extra data levels:

\fB\-x\fR, \fB\-xx\fR, \fB\-xxx\fR

OR

\fB\-\-extra 1\fR, \fB\-\-extra 2\fR, \fB\-\-extra 3\fR

The following details show which lines / items display extra information for
each extra data level.

.TP
.B \-x \-A\fR
\- Adds (if available and/or relevant) \fBvendor:\fR item, which shows 
specific vendor [product] information.

\- Adds version/port(s)/driver version (if available) for each device.

\- 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 on CPU (if available)

\- 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.

Examples: \fBarch: Sandy Bridge rev: 2\fR, \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

.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[BSDs]/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)

BSD 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.

.TP
.B \-x \-E\fR (\fB\-\-bluetooth\fR)
\- Adds (if available and/or relevant) \fBvendor:\fR item, which shows 
specific vendor [product] information.

\- Adds PCI/USB Bus ID of each device.

\- Adds driver version (if available) for each device.

\- Adds (if available, and \fBhciconfig\fR only) LMP (HCI if no LMP data, 
and HCI if HCI/LMP versions are different) version (if available) 
for each HCI ID.

.TP
.B \-x \-G\fR
\- Adds (if available and/or relevant) \fBvendor:\fR item, which shows 
specific vendor [product] information.

\- Adds direct rendering status.

\- Adds (for single GPU, nvidia driver) screen number that GPU is running on.

\- Adds PCI/USB ID of each device.

.TP
.B \-x \-i\fR
\- Adds IP v6 additional scope data, like Global, Site, Temporary for
each interface.

Note that there is no way we are aware of to filter out the deprecated
IP v6 scope site/global temporary addresses from the output of
\fBifconfig\fR. The \fBip\fR tool shows that clearly.

\fBip\-v6\-temporary\fR \- (\fBip\fR tool only), scope global temporary.
Scope global temporary deprecated is not shown

\fBip\-v6\-global\fR \- scope global (\fBifconfig\fR will show this for
all types, global, global temporary, and global temporary deprecated,
\fBip\fR shows it only for global)

\fBip\-v6\-link\fR \- scope link (\fBip\fR/\fBifconfig\fR) \- default
for \fB\-i\fR.

\fBip\-v6\-site\fR \- scope site (\fBip\fR/\fBifconfig\fR). This has been
deprecated in IPv6, but still exists. \fBifconfig\fR may show multiple site
values, as with global temporary, and global temporary deprecated.

\fBip\-v6\-unknown\fR \- unknown scope

.TP
.B \-x \-I\fR
\- Adds current init system (and init rc in some cases, like OpenRC).
With \fB\-xx\fR, shows init/rc version number, if available.

\- Adds default system gcc. With \fB\-xx\fR, also show other installed gcc
versions.

\- Adds current runlevel (not available with all init systems).

\- Adds total packages discovered in system. See \fB\-xx\fR and \fB\-a\fR
for per package manager types output. Moves to \fBRepos\fR if \fB\-rx\fR.

If your package manager is not supported, please file an issue and we'll add it. 
That requires the full output of the query or method to discover all installed 
packages on your system, as well of course as the command or method used to 
discover those.

\- If in shell (i.e. not in IRC client), adds shell version number, if 
available.

.TP
.B \-x \-j\fR, \fB\-x \-\-swap\fR
Add \fBmapper:\fR. See \fB\-x \-o\fR.

.TP
.B \-x \-J\fR (\fB\-\-usb\fR)
\- For Devices, adds driver(s).

.TP
.B \-x \-L\fR, \fB\-x \-\-logical\fR
\- Adds \fBdm: dm-x\fR to VG > LV and other Device types. This can help 
tracking down which device belongs to what.

.TP
.B \-x \-m\fR, \fB\-\-memory\-modules\fR
\- If present, adds maximum memory module/device size in the Array line.
Only some systems will have this data available. Shows estimate if it can
generate one.

.TP
.B \-x \-N\fR
\- Adds (if available and/or relevant) \fBvendor:\fR item, which shows 
specific vendor [product] information.

\- Hardware RAID: Adds driver version, Bus ID.

.TP
.B \-x \-s\fR
\- Adds basic voltages: 12v, 5v, 3.3v, vbat (\fBipmi\fR, \fBlm-sensors\fR if 
present).

.TP
.B \-x \-S\fR
\- Adds Kernel gcc version.

\- Adds to \fBDistro:\fR \fBbase:\fR if detected. System base will only be 
seen on a subset of distributions. The distro must be both derived from a 
parent distro (e.g. Mint from Ubuntu), and explicitly added to the supported 
distributions for this feature. Due to the complexity of distribution 
identification, these will only be added as relatively solid methods are 
found for each distribution system base detection.

.TP
.B \-x \-t\fR (\fB\-\-processes\fR)
\- Adds memory use output to CPU (\fB\-xt c\fR), and CPU use to memory
(\fB\-xt m\fR).

.TP
.B \-x \-w\fR,\fB \-W\fR
\- Adds humidity and barometric pressure.

\- Adds wind speed and direction.

.TP
.B \-xx \-A\fR

.TP
.B \-xx \-B\fR
\- Adds serial number.

.TP
.B \-xx \-C\fR
\- Adds \fBL1\-cache:\fR and \fBL3\-cache:\fR if either are available. 
Requires dmidecode and doas[BSDs]/sudo/root.

.TP
.B \-xx \-D\fR
\- Adds disk serial number.

\- Adds disk speed (if available). This is the theoretical top speed of the 
device as reported. This speed may be restricted by system board limits, 
eg. a SATA 3 drive on a SATA 2 board may report SATA 2 speeds, but this is 
not completely consistent, sometimes a SATA 3 device on a SATA 2 board reports 
its design speed.

NVMe drives: adds lanes, and (per direction) speed is calculated with 
lane speed * lanes * PCIe overhead. PCIe 1 and 2 have data rates of 
GT/s * .8 = Gb/s (10 bits required to transfer 8 bits of data). 
PCIe 3 and greater transfer data at a rate of GT/s * 128/130 * lanes = Gb/s 
(130 bits required to transfer 128 bits of data).

For a PCIe 3 NVMe drive, with speed of \fB8 GT/s\fR and \fB4\fR lanes 
(\fB8GT/s * 128/130 * 4 = 31.6 Gb/s\fR): 

\fBspeed: 31.6 Gb/s lanes: 4\fR

\- Adds disk duid, if available. Some BSDs have it.

.TP
.B \-xx \-E\fR (\fB\-\-bluetooth\fR)
\- Adds vendor:product ID of each device.

if applicable) for each device.

.TP
.B \-xx \-G\fR
\- Adds vendor:product ID of each device.

\- Adds Xorg compositor, if found (always shows for Wayland systems).

\- For free drivers, adds OpenGL compatibility version number if available.
For nonfree drivers, the core version and compatibility versions are usually
the same. Example:

\fBv: 3.3 Mesa 11.2.0 compat\-v: 3.0\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.

\- If available, shows Xorg dpi (\fBs-dpi:\fR) for the active Xorg \fBScreen\fR
(not physical monitor). Note that the physical monitor dpi and the Xorg 
dpi are not necessarily the same thing, and can vary widely.

.TP
.B \-xx \-I\fR
\- Adds init type version number (and rc if present).

\- Adds other detected installed gcc versions (if present).

\- Adds system default runlevel, if detected. Supports Systemd/Upstart/SysVinit
type defaults.

\- Shows \fBPackages:\fR counts by discovered package manager types. In cases 
where only 1 type had results, does not show total after \fBPackages:\fR. Does 
not show installed package managers wtih 0 packages. See \fB\-a\fR for full 
output. Moves to \fBRepos\fR if \fB\-rxx\fR.

\- Adds parent program (or pty/tty) that started shell, if not IRC client.

.TP
.B \-xx \-j\fR (\fB\-\-swap\fR), \fB\-xx \-p\fR, \fB\-xx \-P\fR
\- Adds swap priority to each swap partition (for \fB\-P\fR) used, and for all
swap types (for \fB\-j\fR).

.TP
.B \-xx \-J\fR (\fB\-\-usb\fR)
\- Adds vendor:chip id.

.TP
.B \-xx \-L\fR, \fB\-xx \-\-logical\fR
\- Adds internal LVM Logical volumes, like raid image and meta data volumes. 

\- Adds full list of Components, sub\-components, and their physical devices.

\- For LVM RAID, adds a RAID report line (if not \fB\-R\fR). Read up on LVM
documentation to better understand their use of the term 'stripes'.

.TP
.B \-xx \-m\fR, \fB\-\-memory\-modules\fR
\- Adds memory device Manufacturer.

\- Adds memory device Part Number (\fBpart\-no:\fR). Useful for ordering new 
or replacement memory sticks etc. Part numbers are unique, particularly if you 
use the word \fBmemory\fR in the search as well. With \fB\-xxx\fR, also shows 
serial number.

\- Adds single/double bank memory, if data is found. Note, this may not be 
100% right all of the time since it depends on the order that data is found
in \fBdmidecode\fR output for \fBtype 6\fR and \fBtype 17\fR.

.TP
.B \-xx \-M\fR
\- Adds chassis information, if data is available. Also shows BIOS
ROM size if using \fBdmidecode\fR.

.TP
.B \-xx \-s\fR
\- Adds DIMM/SOC voltages, if present (\fBipmi\fR only).

.TP
.B \-xx \-S\fR
\- Adds display manager (\fBdm\fR) type, if present. If none, shows N/A. 
Supports most known display managers, including gdm, gdm3,
idm, kdm, lightdm, lxdm, mdm, nodm, sddm, slim, tint, wdm, and xdm.

\- Adds, if run in X, window manager type (\fBwm\fR), if available. Not all 
window managers are supported. Some desktops support using more than one 
window manager, so this can be useful to see what window manager is actually 
running. If none found, shows nothing. Uses a less accurate fallback tool 
\fBwmctrl\fR if \fBps\fR tests fail to find data.

\- Adds desktop toolkit (\fBtk\fR), if available (Xfce/KDE/Trinity).

.TP
.B \-xx \-\-slots\fR

.TP
.B \-xxx \-B\fR
\- Adds battery chemistry (e.g. \fBLi\-ion\fR), cycles (NOTE: there appears to
be a problem with the Linux kernel obtaining the cycle count, so this almost
always shows \fB0\fR. There's nothing that can be done about this glitch, the
data is simply not available as of 2018\-04\-03), location (only available from
\fBdmidecode\fR derived output).

\- Adds attached device \fBrechargeable: [yes|no]\fR information. 

.TP
.B \-xxx \-C\fR

Requires doas[BSDs]/sudo/root and \fBdmidecode\fR.

.TP
.B \-xxx \-D\fR
\- Adds disk firmware revision number (if available).

\- Adds disk partition scheme (in most cases), e.g. \fBscheme: GPT\fR. 
Currently not able to detect all schemes, but handles the most common, e.g. 
\fBGPT\fR or \fBMBR\fR.

\- Adds disk type (\fBHDD\fR/\fBSSD\fR), rotation speed (in some but not all 
cases), e.g. \fBtype: HDD rpm: 7200\fR, or \fBtype: SSD\fR if positive SSD 
identification was made. If no HDD, rotation, or positive SSD ID found, shows 
\fBtype: N/A\fR. Not all HDD spinning disks report their speed, so even if they 
are spinning, no rpm data will show.

.TP
.B \-xxx \-E\fR (\fB\-\-bluetooth\fR)

\- For \fBShell:\fR adds \fBdefault:\fR shell if different from
running shell, and default shell \fBv:\fR, if available.

\- For \fBrunning\-in:\fR adds \fB(SSH)\fR to parent, if present. SSH detection
uses the \fBwhoami\fR test.

.TP
.B \-xxx \-J\fR (\fB\-\-usb\fR)
\- Adds, if present, serial number for non hub devices.

\- Adds \fBinterfaces:\fR for non hub devices.

.B \-xxx \-m\fR, \fB\-\-memory\-modules\fR
\- Adds memory bus width: primary bus width, and if present, total width. e.g.
\fBbus width: 64 bit (total: 72 bits)\fR. Note that total / data widths are 
mixed up sometimes in dmidecode output, so inxi will take the larger value as 
the total if present. If no total width data is found, then inxi will not show 
that item.

\- Adds device Type Detail, e.g. \fBdetail: DDR3 (Synchronous)\fR.

\- Adds, if present, memory module voltage. Only some systems will have this
data available.

\- Adds device serial number.

.TP
.B \-xxx \-N\fR
\- Adds, if present, serial number.

\- Adds, if present, PCI/USB class ID.

.TP
.B \-xxx \-R\fR
\- md\-raid: Adds system mdraid support types (kernel support, read ahead, 
RAID events)

\- zfs\-raid: Adds portion allocated (used) by RAID array/device.

\- Hardware RAID: Adds rev, ports, and (if available and/or relevant) 
\fBvendor:\fR item, which shows specific vendor [product] information.

.TP
.B \-xxx \-S\fR
\- Adds, if in X, or with \fB--display\fR, bar/dock/panel/tray items 
(\fBinfo\fR). If none found, shows nothing. Supports desktop items like 
gnome\-panel, lxpanel, xfce4\-panel, lxqt\-panel, tint2, cairo-dock, trayer, 
and many others. 

\- Adds (if present), window manager (\fBwm\fR) version number.

\- Adds (if present), display manager (\fBdm\fR) version number.

\- Adds (if available, and in display), virtual terminal (\fBvt\fR) number.
These are the same as \fBctrl+alt+F[x]\fR numbers usually. Some systems
have this, some don't, it varies.

.TP
.B \-xxx \-w\fR,\fB \-W\fR
\- Adds location (city state country), observation altitude (if available), 
weather observation time (if available), sunset/sunrise (if available).

.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. 

.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[BSDs]/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.
.nf
Sample: \fBsocket: 775 (478) note: check\fR
Sample: \fBsocket: AM4\fR
.fi

\- Adds DMI CPU base and boost/turbo speeds. Requires doas[BSDs]/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:
.nf
CPU not overclocked, with boost, like Ryzen:
\fBSpeed: 2861 MHz min/max: 1550/3400 MHz boost: enabled base/boost: 3400/3900\fR 

Overclocked 2900 MHz CPU, with no boost available: 
\fBSpeed: 2900 MHz min/max: 800/2900 MHz base/boost: 3350/3000\fR

Overclocked 3000 MHz CPU, with boosted max speed:
\fBSpeed: 4190 MHz min/max: 1200/3001 MHz 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 CPU Vulnerabilities (bugs) as known by your current kernel. Lists by
\fBType: ... (status|mitigation): ....\fR for systems that support this feature 
(Linux kernel 4.14 or newer, or patched older kernels).

.TP
.B \-a \-d\fR,\fB\-a \-D\fR
\- Adds logical and physical block size in bytes. 

Using \fBsmartctl\fR (requires doas[BSDs]/sudo/root privileges). 

\- Adds device model family, like \fBCaviar Black\fR, if available.

\- Adds SATA type (eg 1.0, 2.6, 3.0) if a SATA device.

\- Adds device kernel major:minor number (Linux only).

\- Adds SMART report line: status, enabled/disabled, health, powered on, 
cycles, and some error cases if out of range values. Note that for Pre\-fail
items, it will show the VALUE and THRESHOLD numbers. It will also fall back 
for unknown attributes that are or have been failing and print out the 
Attribute name, value, threshold, and failing message. This way even for 
unhandled Attribute names, you should get a solid report for full failure 
cases. Other cases may show if inxi believes that the item may be approaching 
failure. This is a guess so make sure to check the drive and smartctl full 
output to verify before taking any further action.

\- Adds, for USB or other external drives, actual model name/serial if
available, and different from enclosure model/serial, and corrects block 
sizes if necessary. Adds in drive temperature for some drives as well, 
and other useful data.

.TP
.B \-a \-E\fR (\fB\-\-bluetooth\fR)
\- Adds (\fBhciconfig\fR only) extra line to \fBReport:\fR, \fBInfo:\fR. 
Includes, if available, ACL MTU, SCO MTU, Link policy, Link mode, 
and Service Classes.

.TP
.B \-a \-G\fR
Triggers a much more complete Screen/Monitor output on the 
\fBDisplay:\fR line of \fB\-G\fR. Note that the 
basic feature requires \fBxdpyinfo\fR, and the advanced per monitor 
feature requires \fBxrandr\fR. 

No support currently exists for \fBWayland\fR since we so far can find 
no documentation or easy methods to extract this information from \fBWayland\fR 
compositors. This unfortunate situation may change in the future, hopefully. 
However, most \fBWayland\fR systems also come with \fBxwayland\fR, 
which should supply the tools necessary for the time being.

Further note that all references to \fBDisplays\fR, \fBScreens\fR, 
and \fBMonitors\fR are referring to the \fBX\fR technical terms, 
not normal consumer usage. 1 \fBDisplay\fR runs 1 or more 
\fBScreens\fR, and a \fBScreen\fR runs 1 or more \fBMonitors\fR.

\- Adds \fBDisplay\fR ID, for the Display running the Screen that runs the 
Monitors.

\- Adds total number of \fBScreens\fR listed for the current \fBDisplay\fR.

\- Adds default \fBScreen\fR ID if Screen (not monitor!) total is greater than 
1.

\- Adds \fBScreen\fR line, which includes the ID (\fBScreen: 0\fR) then 
\fBs-res\fR (Screen resolution), \fBs\-dpi\fR, \fBs\-size\fR and \fBs\-diag\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.

\- Adds \fBMonitor\fR ID(s). Monitors are a subset of a Screen, each of which
can have one or more monitors. Normally a dual monitor setup is 2 monitors 
run by one Xorg Screen. Each monitor has the following data, if available:

\- \fBres:\fR resolution in pixels. This is the individual monitor's 
reported pixel dimensions.

\- \fBhz:\fR frequency in Herz, as reported to Xorg. Note that there have been
and may continue to be bugs with how Xorg treats > 1 monitor frequencies.

\- \fBdpi:\fR dpi (dots per inch), aka, ppi (pixels per inch). This is the 
physical screen dpi, which is calculated using the screen dimensions and its
resolution. 

\- \fBsize:\fR size in mm (inches). Note that this is the real monitor size,
not the Xorg Screen size, which can be quite different (1 Xorg Screen can 
for instance contain two or more monitors). 

\- \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 different.

\- Adds, if present, possible \fBalternate:\fR kernel modules capable of 
driving each \fBDevice\-x\fR (not including the current \fBloaded:\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. 

.TP
.B \-a \-I\fR
\- Adds Packages, totals, per package manager totals, and number of lib
packages detected per package manager. Also adds detected package managers

you need when using an unfamiliar machine.

.TP
.B \-a \-j\fR, \fB\-a \-P\fR [swap], \fB\-a \-P\fR [swap]
\- Adds swappiness and vfs cache pressure, and a message to indicate 
if the value is the default value or not (Linux only, and only if available). 
If not the default value, shows default value as well, e.g. 

For \fB\-P\fR per swap physical partition:

\fBswappiness: 60 (default) cache\-pressure: 90 (default 100)\fR

For \fB\-j\fR row 1 output:

\fBKernel: swappiness: 60 (default) cache\-pressure: 90 (default 100)\fR

\- Adds device kernel major:minor number (Linux only).

.TP
.B \-a \-L\fR
\- Expands Component report, shows size / maj-min of components and devices, 
and mapped name for logical components. Puts each component/device on its own

\fBsize: 58.81 GiB (98.01%)\fR.

Note that \fBused: 16.44 GiB (34.3%)\fR percent refers to the available size, 
not the raw size.

\- Adds partition filesystem block size if found (requires root and blockdev). 

\- Adds device kernel major:minor number (Linux only).

.SH ADVANCED OPTIONS

.TP
.B \-\-alt 40\fR
Bypass \fBPerl\fR as a downloader option. Priority is: Perl (HTTP::Tiny),
Curl, Wget, Fetch, (OpenBSD only) ftp.

.TP
.B \-\-alt 41\fR
Bypass \fBCurl\fR as a downloader option. Priority is: Perl (HTTP::Tiny),
Curl, Wget, Fetch, (OpenBSD only) ftp.

.TP
.B \-\-alt 42\fR
Bypass \fBFetch\fR as a downloader option. Priority is: Perl (HTTP::Tiny),
Curl, Wget, Fetch, (OpenBSD only) ftp.

.TP
.B \-\-alt 43\fR
Bypass \fBWget\fR as a downloader option. Priority is: Perl (HTTP::Tiny),
Curl, Wget, Fetch, OpenBSD only: ftp

.TP
.B \-\-alt 44\fR
Bypass \fBCurl\fR, \fBFetch\fR, and \fBWget\fR as downloader options. This
basically forces the downloader selection to use \fBPerl 5.x\fR 
\fBHTTP::Tiny\fR, which is generally slower than \fBCurl\fR or \fBWget\fR but 
it may help bypass issues with downloading.

.TP
.B \-\-bt\-tool [bt\-adapter|hciconfig|rfkill]\fR
Force the use of the given tool for bluetooth report (\fB\-E\fR). 
\fBrfkill\fR does not support mac address data.

.TP
.B \-\-dig\fR
Temporary override of \fBNO_DIG\fR configuration item. Only use to test w/wo 
dig. Restores default behavior for WAN IP, which is use dig if present.

.TP
.B \-\-display [:<integer>]\fR
Will try to get display data out of X (does not usually work as root user).
Default gets display info from display \fB:0\fR. If you use the format
\fB\-\-display :1\fR then it would get it from display \fB1\fR instead,
or any display you specify.

Note that in some cases, \fB\-\-display\fR will cause inxi to hang endlessly 
when running the option in console with Intel graphics. The situation regarding 
other free drivers such as nouveau/ATI is currently unknown. It may be that 
this is a bug with the Intel graphics driver \- more information is required.

You can test this easily by running the following command out of X/display 
server: \fBglxinfo \-display :0\fR

If it hangs, \fB\-\-display\fR will not work.

.TP
.B \-\-dmidecode\fR
Shortcut, legacy. See \fB\-\-force dmidecode\fR.

.TP
.B \-\-downloader [curl|fetch|perl|wget]\fR
Force inxi to use Curl, Fetch, Perl, or Wget for downloads.

.TP
.B \-\-force [dmidecode|hddtemp|lsusb|pkg|usb-sys|vmstat|wmctl]\fR 
Various force options to allow users to override defaults. Values be given
as a comma separated list:

\fBinxi \-MJ --force dmidecode,lsusb\fR 

\- \fBdmidecode\fR \- Force use of \fBdmidecode\fR. This will override 
\fB/sys\fR data in some lines, e.g. \fB\-M\fR or \fB\-B\fR.

\- \fBhddtemp\fR \- Force use of hddtemp instead of /sys temp data for disks.

\- \fBlsusb\fR \- Forces the USB data generator to use \fBlsusb\fR as 
data source (default). Overrides \fBUSB_SYS\fR in user configuration file(s).

\- \fBpkg\fR \- Force override of disabled package counts. Known package 
managers with non\-resolvable issues: 

rpm: Due to up to 30 seconds delays executing 
.nf
\fBrpm \-qa \-\-nodigest \-\-nosignature\fR
.fi
on older hardware (and over 1 second on new hardware with some rpm versions) 
package counts are disabled by default because of the unacceptable slowdowns 
to execute a simple package list command. 

\- \fBusb-sys\fR \- Forces the USB data generator to use \fB/sys\fR as 
data source instead of \fBlsusb\fR (Linux only).

\- \fBvmstat\fR \- Forces use of vmstat for memory data.

\- \fBwmctl\fR \- Force \fBSystem\fR item \fBwm\fR to use \fBwmctrl\fR 
as data source, override default \fBps\fR source.

.TP
.B \-\-hddtemp\fR
Shortcut, legacy. See \fB\-\-force hddtemp\fR.

.TP
.B \-\-host\fR
Turns on hostname in System line. Overrides inxi config file value (if set):

\fBSHOW_HOST='false'\fR \- Same as: \fBSHOW_HOST='true'\fR

This is an absolute override, the host will always show no matter what
other switches you use.

.TP
.B \-\-html\-wan\fR
Temporary override of \fBNO_HTML_WAN\fR configuration item. Only use to test 
w/wo HTML downloaders for WAN IP. Restores default behavior for WAN IP, which 
is use HTML downloader if present and if dig failed.

.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 \-\-man\fR
Updates / installs man page with \fB\-U\fR if \fBpinxi\fR or using \fB\-U 3\fR 
dev branch. (Only active if \fB\-U\fR is is not disabled by maintainers).

.TP
.B \-\-no\-dig\fR
Overrides default use of \fBdig\fR to get WAN IP address. Allows use of normal 
downloader tool to get IP addresses. Only use if dig is failing, since dig is 
much faster and more reliable in general than other methods.
.TP
.B \-\-no\-doas\fR
Skips the use of doas to run certain internal features (like \fBhddtemp\fR, 
\fBfile\fR) with doas. Not related to running inxi itself with doas/sudo or 
super user. Some systems will register errors which will then trigger admin 
emails in such cases, so if you want to disable regular user use of doas 
(which requires configuration to setup anyway for these options) just use 
this option, or \fBNO_DOAS\fR configuration item. See \fB\-\-no\-sudo\fR if 
you need to disable both types.

.TP
.B \-\-no\-host\fR
Turns off hostname in System line. This is default when using \fB\-z\fR,
for anonymizing inxi output for posting on forums or IRC. Overrides
configuration value (if set):
indent\-min

\fBSHOW_HOST='true'\fR \- Same as: \fBSHOW_HOST='false'\fR

This is an absolute override, the host will not show no matter what other 
switches you use.

.TP
.B \-\-no\-html-wan\fR
Overrides use of HTML downloaders to get WAN IP address. Use either only dig, 
or do not get wan IP. Only use if dig is failing, and the HTML downloaders are 
taking too long, or are hanging or failing. 

Make permanent with \fBNO_HTML_WAN='true'\fR

.TP
.B \-\-no\-man\fR
Disables man page install with \fB\-U\fR for master and active development 
branches. (Only active if \fB\-U\fR is is not disabled by maintainers).

.TP
.B \-\-no\-sensor\-force\fR
Overrides user set \fBSENSOR_FORCE\fR configuration value. Restores default 
behavior. 

.TP
.B \-\-no\-ssl\fR
Skip SSL certificate checks for all downloader actions (\fB\-U\fR, \fB\-w\fR,
\fB\-W\fR, \fB\-i\fR). Use if your system does not have current SSL certificate
lists, or if you have problems making a connection for any reason. Works with
\fBWget\fR, \fBCurl\fR, \fBPerl HTTP::Tiny\fR and \fBFetch\fR.

.TP
.B \-\-no\-sudo\fR
Skips the use of sudo to run certain internal features (like \fBhddtemp\fR, 
\fBfile\fR) with sudo. Not related to running inxi itself with sudo or 
superuser. Some systems will register errors which will then trigger admin 
emails in such cases, so if you want to disable regular user use of sudo (which 
requires configuration to setup anyway for these options) just use this option, 
or \fBNO_SUDO\fR configuration item.

.TP
.B \-\-output [json|screen|xml]\fR
Change data output type. Requires \-\-output\-file if not \fBscreen\fR.

.TP
.B \-\-output\-file [full path to output file|print]\fR
The given directory path must exist. The directory path given must exist,
The \fBprint\fR options prints to stdout.
Required for non\-screen \fB\-\-output\fR formats (json|xml).

.TP
.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.

\fBuuid\fR \- UUID of the partition.

\fBused\fR \- KiB used of partition.

.TP
.B \-\-pkg\fR
Shortcut. See \fB\-\-force pkg\fR.

.TP
.B \-\-pm\-type [package manager name]\fR
For distro package maintainers only, and only for non apt, rpm, or pacman 
based systems. To be used to test replacement package lists for recommends 
for that package manager.

.TP
.B \-\-sensors\-default\fR
Overrides configuration values \fBSENSORS_USE\fR or \fBSENSORS_EXCLUDE\fR
on a one time basis. 

.TP
.B \-\-sensors\-exclude\fR
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.

Example: \fBinxi \-sxx \-\-sensors\-use nct6791-isa-0290,k10temp-pci-00c3\fR

.TP
.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.

.B \-\-usb\-tool\fR
Shortcut, legacy. See \fB\-\-force lsusb\fR

.TP
.B \-\-wan\-ip\-url [URL]\fR
Force \fB\-i\fR to use supplied URL as WAN IP source. Overrides dig or 
default IP source urls. URL must start with http[s] or ftp.

The IP address from the URL must be the last item on the last (non\-empty) 
line of the page content source code.

Same as configuration value (example):

.B \-\-wm\fR
Shortcut, legacy. See \fB\-\-force wmctl\fR.

.TP
.B \-\-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 only 2 columns. 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 (90) and user configuration value:

\fBWRAP_MAX=85\fR (previously \fBINDENT_MIN\fR)

Previously called: \fB\-\-indent\-min\fR.

.SH DEBUGGING OPTIONS TO DEBUG DEBUGGER FAILURES

Only use the following in conjunction with \fB\-\-debug 2[012]\fR, and only 
use if you experienced a failure or hang, or were instructed to do so.

.TP
.B \-\-debug\-proc\fR
Force debugger to parse \fB/proc\fR directory data when run as root. Normally 
this is disabled due to unpredictable data in /proc tree. 

.TP
.B \-\-debug\-proc\-print\fR
Use this to locate file that /proc debugger hangs on.

.TP
.B \-\-debug\-no\-exit\fR
Skip exit on error when running debugger.

.TP
.B \-\-debug\-no\-proc\fR
Skip /proc debugging in case of a hang.

.TP
.B \-\-debug\-no\-sys\fR
Skip /sys debugging in case of a hang.

.TP
.B \-\-debug\-sys\fR
Force PowerPC debugger parsing of /sys as doas[BSDs]/sudo/root.

.TP
.B \-\-debug\-sys\-print\fR
Use this to locate file that /sys debugger hangs on.

.SH SUPPORTED IRC CLIENTS
BitchX, Gaim/Pidgin, ircII, Irssi, Konversation, Kopete, KSirc, KVIrc, 
Weechat, and Xchat. Plus any others that are capable of displaying either 
built\-in or external script output.

.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 >
\fB$HOME/.inxi/inxi.conf\fR

.SH CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

See the documentation page for more complete information on how to set
these up, and for a complete list of options:

.I https://smxi.org/docs/inxi\-configuration.htm
.TP
.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 console, out of GUI 
desktop.

\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.

\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.

\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.

\fBWRAP_MAX\fR (previously \fBINDENT_MIN\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\-\-wrap\-max\fR. If \fB80\fR or less, wrap will never happen.

.TP
.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.

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.
