Introduction to PCI Utilities
PCI Utilities are various utilities that allow inspection and setting of devices connected to the PCI bus.
Project Homepage: Unknown
Dependencies
Non-Multilib
Compile the package:
sed -i 's/null ;/null 2>\&1 ;/' update-pciids.sh && make PREFIX=/usr ZLIB=no
Install the package
make PREFIX=/usr install
Some packages require the PCI static library. To install the library and headers, issue the following commands:
install -v -m 755 -d /usr/include/pci && install -v -m 644 lib/libpci.a /usr/lib && install -v -m 644 lib/*.h /usr/include/pci
Command Explanations
sed -i 's/null ;/null 2>\&1 ;/' update-pciids.sh: This command suppresses some unneeded screen output from the update-pciids command if you don't have either Lynx or Wget installed by redirecting the stderr output of the embedded which command to /dev/null.
ZLIB=no: This will make the pci.ids file usable for anything that expects an uncompressed version of the pci.ids file. Without this command the file would be called pci.ids.gz, which is not compatbile with some programs. Compression of pci.ids was added with the 2.2.4 release.
Multilib
32Bit
Compile the package:
sed -i 's/null ;/null 2>\&1 ;/' update-pciids.sh && make PREFIX=/usr CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ZLIB=no
Install the package
make PREFIX=/usr install
Some packages require the PCI static library. To install the library and headers, issue the following commands:
install -v -m 755 -d /usr/include/pci && install -v -m 644 lib/libpci.a /usr/lib && install -v -m 644 lib/*.h /usr/include/pci
N32
Compile the package:
sed -i 's/null ;/null 2>\&1 ;/' update-pciids.sh && make PREFIX=/usr CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" ZLIB=no
Install the package
make PREFIX=/usr install
Some packages require the PCI static library. To install the library and headers, issue the following commands:
install -v -m 755 -d /usr/include/pci && install -v -m 644 lib/libpci.a /usr/lib32 && install -v -m 644 lib/*.h /usr/include/pci
64Bit
Compile the package:
sed -i 's/null ;/null 2>\&1 ;/' update-pciids.sh && make PREFIX=/usr CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" ZLIB=no
Install the package
make PREFIX=/usr install
Some packages require the PCI static library. To install the library and headers, issue the following commands:
install -v -m 755 -d /usr/include/pci && install -v -m 644 lib/libpci.a /usr/lib64 && install -v -m 644 lib/*.h /usr/include/pci
Configuring
pci.ids
The pci.ids data file is constantly being updated. To get a current version of this file run update-pciids. This program requires Which to find Curl, Wget, or Lynx which is used to download the most current file.

lspci | is a utility for displaying information about all PCI buses in the system and all devices connected to them. |
---|---|
setpci | is a utility for querying and configuring PCI devices. |
update-pciids | fetches the current version of the PCI ID list. Requires Curl, Wget or Lynx. |
libpci.a | is the static library that allows applications to access the PCI subsystem. |
