13 The Linux PCI Utilities contain various utilities for dealing with the PCI
14 bus in Linux:
15
16 - lspci: displays detailed information about all PCI busses and devices
17 in the system, replacing the original /proc/pci interface.
18
19 - setpci: allows to read from and write to PCI device configuration
20 registers. For example, you can adjust the latency timers with it.
