Subject: Re: legacy VGA device requirements (was: Exposing ROM's though sysfs)
Date: Fri, 13 Aug 2004 16:56:30 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040813235630.89799.qmail@web14928.mail.yahoo.com> (raw)

I know internally how to find the VGA cards using the PCI class. I
meant this in the context of how do you enumerate all of the VGA
devices in a domain from a user space app. What is the API for this?
What is the user space API for turning off all of the VGA devices in a
domain?
