Some details can be parsed more accurately if the platform is known. .TP .BI \-\-panel\-type\fB= N Parse the details for flat panel N. Usually this is retrieved from the Video BIOS Tables, but this can be used to override. .TP .B \-\-all\-panels Parse the details for all flat panels present in the Video BIOS Tables. .TP .B \-\-hexdump Hex dump the blocks. .TP .BI \-\-block\fB= N Dump only the BIOS Data Block number N. .UNINDENT .SH REPORTING BUGS .sp Report bugs to \fI\%https://bugs.freedesktop.org\fP\&. .SH SEE ALSO .sp \fBintel_bios_dumper(1)\fP .SH AUTHOR IGT Developers .SH COPYRIGHT 2010,2012,2016 Intel Corporation .\" Generated by docutils manpage writer. .
