Re: [Freedos-devel] Fwd: lspci (pciutils) for freedos
Good to know that (Free)DOS has lspci support. Thanks for the info! And now, for my two cents lol My ListPCI application (https://mercurycoding.com/downloads.html) does essentially the same thing, although it shows only the manufacturer and device type, not the specific device name; e.g. "Intel Corporation IDE Mass Storage Controller" and not "Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE". This has proven to be good enough for my purposes (and hopefully other users' as well!) and results in a much smaller binary - 52.2 kB versus lspci's 191.5 kB.

Re: [Freedos-devel] Fwd: lspci (pciutils) for freedos
Hi! LSPCI relies on a rather large list of known PCI ID, which is why I made PCISLEEP long ago: It just has a small list of known vendors and types, to keep the installation small :-) It also experiments with PCI based standby and suspend modes, including VGA ones. But of course, having a full LSPCI for DOS would not hurt either, for more detailed information :-) Eric PS: PCISLEEP is written in Assembly language. For a DOS version of LSPCI, I suggest using BIOS calls or raw I/O and keeping the rest in original LSPCI style. Hi Pali, I will forward your message regarding lspci to the FreeDOS mailinglist. Thanks for sharing this information! Greetings, Bernd Anfang der weitergeleiteten Nachricht: Von: Pali Rohár Betreff: lspci (pciutils) for freedos Datum: 9. März 2024 um 12:49:53 MEZ An: Bernd Boeckmann Hello, I read the freedos wiki page contribute https://freedos.sourceforge.io/wiki/index.php/Contribute and I would like to let you know that the "lspci" tool known from the linux which lists and prints information about all PCI devices connected in the system, works also on freedos and the last version now has pre-compiled binaries in the pciutils project page. They are in windows download section, but are compiled with DJGPP toolchain. http://mj.ucw.cz/sw/pciutils/ I saw more questions from users if there is a lspci-like tool for freedos to list PCI devices, so I think that the original lspci can be useful for freedos. Would you consider including it into distribution CD? Note that pciutils library is used by flashrom which is already present.
