💖 intel-virtual-output — the manual page, but make it make sense 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because we're talking about intel-virtual-output, a lil section 4 (Kernel Interfaces Manual) icon from the xf86-video-intel world. she's giving "utility for connecting the Integrated Intel GPU to discrete outputs" and honestly? obsessed. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

intel-virtual-output — Utility for connecting the Integrated Intel GPU to discrete outputs

like. that's the whole job. connecting the integrated Intel GPU to discrete outputs. no cap. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

intel-virtual-output [<remote display>] <output name>...

so you can pass a <remote display>, and you do need one or more <output name>s. the brackets are doing the "optional" thing, the ... is doing the "give me more than one, i'm not picky" thing. slay. 💅

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

intel-virtual-output is a utility for Intel integrated graphics chipsets on hybrid systems. iykyk. 🔥

here's the tea: the tool connects local VirtualHeads to a remote output, which means your primary display can extend onto the remote outputs. it's giving main character energy for your second monitor. your desktop just keeps going. periodt. ✨

🎀 REPORTING BUGS 🎀

the xf86-video-intel driver is part of the X.Org and Freedesktop.org umbrella projects — big family, lots of cousins. 🫶

details on bug reporting live right here:

https://01.org/linuxgraphics/documentation/how-report-bugs

mailing lists are also commonly used to report experiences and ask questions about configuration and other topics — not me recommending the group chat method, but like, it is the group chat method. 😭

see lists.freedesktop.org for more information, and know that the xorg@lists.freedesktop.org mailing list is the most appropriate place to ask X.Org and driver related questions. that's the one. that's the vibe check. 💌

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

go read those too, they're the supporting cast and they ate. 👑

and that's the whole page, bestie!! 💖 this one's from X Version 11, rocking xf86-video-intel 2.99.917 — the date slot was just kinda... empty, so we're leaving it iconic and mysterious like a text left on read. 🧚 stay connected, stay extended, mwah. 💜
