NAME
       discover.conf — configuration file format for discover(1)

Description
       Discover	 looks	for  configuration files in a configuration directory,
       containing a number of files.   These  define  the  system  buses  that
       should  be  scanned by default, those that should never be scanned, and
       the URLs for hardware data files beyond the local  copy	provided  with
       the software.

       The file format is XML; the DTD	   is provided with the Discover soft‐
       ware, and can be used for informational or validation purposes.

Examples
       Establishing default buses to scan

       <?xml version="1.0"?>

       <!DOCTYPE conffile SYSTEM "conffile.dtd">

       <conffile>
       <busscan scan="default">
       <bus name="ata"/>
       <bus name="pci"/>
       <bus name="pcmcia"/>
       <bus name="scsi"/>
       <bus name="usb"/>
       </busscan>
       </conffile>

       A more complex example

       <?xml version="1.0"?>

       <!DOCTYPE conffile SYSTEM "conffile.dtd">

       <conffile>
       <busscan scan="default">
       <bus name="ata"/>
       <bus name="pci"/>
       <bus name="pcmcia"/>
       <bus name="usb"/>
       </busscan>
       <!-- My ancient SCSI card locks up when probed -->
       <busscan scan="never">
       <bus name="scsi"/>
       </busscan>
       <data-sources>
       <data-source url="http://www.example.com/discover/xfree86.xml"
       label="Updated XFree86 hardware information">
       </data-sources>
       </conffile>

Authors
       Josh Bressers, John R. Daily, and G.  Branden  Robinson	developed  the
       current implementation of Discover for Progeny Linux Systems.

       The  Linux implementation of the system-dependent interfaces is derived
       from detect, by MandrakeSoft SA.
