Introduction to PCI Utilities
PCI Utilities are various utilities that allow inspection and setting of devices connected to the PCI bus.

Dependencies
Optional
Non-Multilib
Compile the package:
make PREFIX=/usr CC="gcc -fPIC" ZLIB=no SHARED=yes
Install the package
make PREFIX=/usr SHARED=yes install
Some packages require the PCI static library. To install the library and headers, issue the following command:
make PREFIX=/usr SHARED=yes install-lib
Command Explanations
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. If compressed support is enabled by ZLIB=yes, pciutils will use pci.ids.gz in preference to pci.ids, even if the pci.ids file is newer. If the pci.ids.gz file is missing, it will use pci.ids instead. You can turn on compression support and uncompress pci.ids.gz to pci.ids after every update manually.
Multilib
32Bit
Compile the package:
make PREFIX=/usr CC="gcc ${BUILD32} -fPIC" ZLIB=no SHARED=yes
Install the package
make PREFIX=/usr SHARED=yes install
Some packages require the PCI static library. To install the library and headers, issue the following commands:
make PREFIX=/usr SHARED=yes install-lib
N32
Compile the package:
make PREFIX=/usr LIBDIR=/usr/lib32 CC="gcc ${BUILDN32} -fPIC" ZLIB=no SHARED=yes
Install the package
make PREFIX=/usr LIBDIR=/usr/lib32 SHARED=yes install
Some packages require the PCI static library. To install the library and headers, issue the following command:
make PREFIX=/usr LIBDIR=/usr/lib32 SHARED=yes install-lib
64Bit
Compile the package:
make PREFIX=/usr LIBDIR=/usr/lib64 CC="gcc ${BUILD64} -fPIC" ZLIB=no SHARED=yes
Install the package
make PREFIX=/usr LIBDIR=/usr/lib64 SHARED=yes install
Some packages require the PCI static library. To install the library and headers, issue the following command:
make PREFIX=/usr LIBDIR=/usr/lib64 SHARED=yes install-lib
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.
