Help inxi development! Submit a user debugger dataset.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is easy to do, and only takes a few seconds, but these datasets really
|
||||||
|
help the project add and debug features.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For inxi versions 2.9/3 and newer, run: inxxi --debug 22
|
||||||
|
For inxi versions 2.3 and older, run: inxi -xx@14
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that for inxi 3, the following options are present for --debug:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. --debug 20 - creates a local gz version of the debugger dataset
|
||||||
|
2. --debug 21 - creates gz dataset, uploads it, leaves gz on your system
|
||||||
|
3. --debug 22 - creates gz dataset, uploads it, deletes gz file
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can run these as regular user, or root/sudo, which will gather a bit more
|
||||||
|
data, like from dmidecode, and other tools that need superuser permissions
|
||||||
|
to run.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
ARM and BSD datasets are particularly appreciated.
