Overview

There are a set of configuration files in the Second Life install folder that control the default settings and overrides for various graphics chips on different platforms:

  • gpu_table.txt - assigns a "class" to a graphics chip
  • feature_table(_linux/_mac/_xp).txt - defines specific features to be enabled or disabled by default based on a variety of conditions

GPU Table

The GPU table is uniform for all platforms and contains a list of regular expressions that match GPU names reported by graphics drivers to a specific chip or category of chips. Each entry is of the format:

<recognizer name> <regular expression> <class> <supported>
