Thanks Ivan, no problem. I'll look at it when I have time. Two related notes: * On week from April 13th to 17th, this is Hack Week 12 at SUSE. This time I decided to work on dmidecode. I plan to add full support for SMBIOS 3.0.0, including the new entry point format. Then I'll work on integrating your work (the sysfs interface.) Project page: https://hackweek.suse.com/12/projects/766 If you or anyone else want to participate, you are very welcome. Ideally we would release dmidecode 2.13 at the end of that week. * Do you know of any hardware already implementing SMBIOS 3.0 (either the new entry point format, or the new enumerated values, or both)? Having a real-world example would make testing much easier. Thanks, -- Jean Delvare SUSE L3 Support
