HAL-FIND-BY-CAPABILITY(1)			     HAL-FIND-BY-CAPABILITY(1)

NAME
       hal-find-by-capability - find device objects by capability matching

SYNOPSIS
       hal-find-by-capability [options]

DESCRIPTION
       hal-get-capability  finds  device  object in the HAL device database by
       looking at device capabilities. For more information about both the big
       picture and specific HAL properties, refer to the HAL spec which can be
       found in /spec/hal-spec.html depending on the distribution.

OPTIONS
       The following options are supported:

       --capability
	      The name of the capability.

       --verbose
	      Verbose output.

       --help Print out usage.

       --version
	      Print the version.

RETURN VALUE
       If devices matching the given capability are  found  each  UDI  (Unique
       Device Identifier) is printed on stdout and the program exits with exit
       code 0. If no devices are found or an error occured, the program	 exits
       with a non-zero exit code.

BUGS
       Please  send  bug reports to either the distribution or the HAL mailing
       list, see http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/hal on  how  to
       subscribe.
