NAME
       dsbdriverd -- A device driver loading daemon

SYNOPSIS
       dsbdriverd [-l |	-c vendor:device] | [-fn] [-x driver,...]

DESCRIPTION
       dsbdriverd  is  a  daemon that automatically tries to find and load the
       suitable	driver for your	PCI and	USB hardware.  On  startup  dsbdriverd
       scans  the  PCI	and  US(B)  bus	for all	connected devices and looks up
       their driver in a database and  linker.hints  files  using  information
       provided	 by  the hardware. The same applies to USB devices attached to
       the system later	at runtime.

       The options are as follows:

       -c      Check if	there is a driver for the given	vendor and device ID.

       -f      Run in foreground.

       -l      List installed devices and their	corresponding driver.

       -n      Just show what would be done, but do not	load any  drivers,  or
	       call any	Lua functions.

       -x      Exclude	every driver in	the comma separated list from loading.
	       The list	set via	the -x flag takes precedence over the  exclude
	       list defined in the config file.
