weather -w option. With -x, -xx-, -xxx, shows more information. Basic line is just weather
and system time there. -x adds time zone, which is useful for servers, particurly web servers.
-x also adds wind speed. -xx adds humidity and barometric pressure. -xxx adds a possible new line,
if data is available, heat index, wind chill, and dew point.
-xxx also adds a line for location (blocked by irc/-z) / weather observation time.
-z filter applies as usual to location data, removes it in irc by default. -Z overrides override.
The api this uses is probably going to be dropped at some point, so this is just going to work
while it works, then it will need to be updated at some point, so don't get very attached to it.
Also adds option to, with -w: -! location=<location string>
This lets users send an alternate location using either <city,state> or <postal code>
or <latitude,longitude> (commas for city,state and latitude,longitude are not optional, and the order
must be as listed.
If There is a developer flag if distro maintainers do not want this enabled, simply set:
B_ALLOW_WEATHER='false'
before packaging and the weather feature will be disabled.
useage if bind mounts are used, ie, multiple binds to a single mount. Now inxi will
check a list of the previously used partitions before adding the size of the used space
to the total used, if the partition has already been used it will skip it. This was/is
a quick and dirty fix, but it's totally fine I believe and should resolve two separate
issues:
1. use of bind mount method, where multiple partition names are bound to the same partition
2. accidental dual mounting to the same partition.
partitions section will still show the same data, ie, if bind is used, it will show all
the bind mounts even when they are attached/bound to a partition that is already listed.
This seems useful information, though maybe we can get the key word 'bind' in there somehow,
but for now I won't worry about that issue, that's just a nice to have, not a bug.
linux driver version handling, now only trimming off number from bsd drivers.
Some linux drivers, like tg3 for broadcom ethernet, have numbers ending them. So this is
a bug fix for 1.8.44 release mainly.
Also includes openbsd initial fixes for some issues related to sysctl parsing for cpu and ram.
to bsd. Using a pciconf parser to do most of the heavy lifting in this one.
Two functions do the main pci card processing for audio, graphics, and networking.
All seems to be shipshape and working, tested on freebsd 7.3, 9.0, and 9.1 and
the output is consistent.
turns off all -h and -H menu options for updating. Also triggers an error message
if you use -U or -! <10-16/http://>.
Distro maintainers, take note, if you used the B_ALLOW_UPDATES flag, you no longer
need to change the code anywhere, the error messages and blocking the -h output for
update features is automatic as soon as the flag is set to 'false'.
I needed to change the -! handling because -! is now also being used for extra features
like -! 31 and -! 32 and probably more stuff in the future, plus the -! 30 used by
things like the inxi gui tool being worked on by trash80.
Also included in this version are more bsd changes, including initial function for pciconf
data parsing, this will be used for -A, -G, and -N options for card data.
Further bsd improvements are better error/no data available messages for -D and -o.
The hdd used still fails to properly calculate the actual raid sizes but that's a bit too tricky
to do easily so will leave that for some other time.
Also added in more hdd used partition types for bsds, wd and ad type drivers for disks.
partitions) would show components of the md raid array as unmounted partitions.
This is of course incorrect, and is now fixed.
Small update of man page as well to note that -o will not show components of mdraid arrays.
output for mdraid. Certain conditions would trigger a false return for raid components, now
it shows more explicitly the online/spare/failed data so it's clear. Also shows 'none' for
online if none are detected.
status as with mdraid, will show offline/failed devices as well in standard output.
Updated help and man page to reflect the difference between -R, -Rx, and -Rxx output for
zfs / mdraid.
No linux inxi changes, this should not alter any behaviors in -R for mdraid, if it does, it's
a bug, please report it.
Fixed partition bug that could falsely identify a remote filesystem like nfs as /dev fs
Added two options:
-! 31 - Turns off Host section of System line. This is useful if you want to post output
from server without posting its name.
-! 32 - Turns on Host section if it has been disabled by user configuration file
B_SHOW_HOST='false'
Added missing CPU data message, fixed missing cpu cache/bogomips output, turned off
bogomips if null for bsd systems because bogomips is a linux kernel feature.
Added N/A for no memory report, this would mainly hit bsd systems where user has no
permissions to use sysctl or has no read rights for /var/run/dmesg.boot.
Many fixes for partitions, now for bsd, if available, uses gpart list to get uuid/label
Added support for raid file system syntax in bsd, now excludes main raid device name,
and adds a flag to raiddevice/partitionname type so output can identify it as a raid
slice/partition.
In man page, added -! 31 / -! 32 sections, and some other small edits.
Added bsd raid line error message, added bsd sensors line error message.
Many other small bug fixes that should make linux more robust in terms of missing
data, and better/cleaner output for bsd.
In some cases, dmidecode returns the grammatically wrong message:
'No smbios nor dmi data' instead of 'No smbios or dmi data', corrected the search
to look for simpler: 'no smbios ' to avoid that random error.
properly support the -s option. Now -M uses only one method for dmidecode, manual construction of the Machine
data from the raw dmidecode file. The file output is also parsed a bit to make it more consistently reliable
for inxi purposes.
This update also includes all recent bsd branch updates, including the new #!/usr/bin/env bash on top which
lets inxi run in any environment without changes. Also for bsd, sets sed -i/sed -i '' global value, which
means that now all the branches are the same, except the bsd branches will contain the most recent tests
and bsd handling.
As each step is reached, I'll release a new inxi that should be stable, this is the first one however that
can be used as is, no changes, for bsd, debian kfreebsd, and linux systems.
Pleasen note that most bsd features are either incomplete or missing completely at this point, but it's a
start.
Some initial changes as well to help options to show more correct linux or bsd terms. These will be updated
as time permits, it is a long process.
kfreebsd from Debian.
Cleaned up all sed and grep that will be used by bsds, added more granular flag for bsd types.
Cleaned up and corrected issues between bsd/linux, more escapes and tests added to drop error
counts in bsds.
Please note that you must use the inxi from branches/bsd for true bsds because sed has extra -i ''
added, and has the proper #!/usr/local/bin/bash
Added -! 16 for gnubsd download/update, that's for gnu bsd systems like gnu/kfreebsd from debian.
That retains the top #!/bin/bash path, and also uses gnu sed so no -i '' syntax.
Moved some grep -o to gawk or sed to avoid using gnu grep unnecessarily, leaving gnu grep where
it will be linux only, for example parsing a /proc file.
Fixed tty irc bugs for bsds and linux, now should show the right console size for both, ideally.
support built in, although inxi will not run in bsd unless the top: #!/bin/bash is changed
to #!/usr/local/bin/bash
The actual bsd branch can be grabbed from:
http://inxi.googlecode.com/svn/branches/bsd/inxi
then you can keep that version updated using: inxi -! 15
which will grab the latest bsd version from the svn server.
This release also fixes a lot of small bugs that testing for bsd support exposed, but functionally
most people should see no difference, I just want to get this version up because there are
so many small changes that it's worth having a release.
I was going to have the fixed dmidecode for old systems in 1.8.35 but that will have to wait til
1.8.36
Linux users should see no real changes, except maybe a thing or two will work in certain circumstances
when it didn't before, like showing MHz on ARM cpus on short inxi.
small change -Ixx will show running in tty if it's not in X, with tty number.
sort of redundant to System: console: data, but that's ok, we'll live for now.
an ssh command sometimes it will not show any client information, just the debugger
PPID output. Now it will test as a final check to see if it can detect any parent to
the process. Actually grandparent I believe. Seems to work, it's a fringe case but
why not handle it?
New -xx feature, for -I it will show, if inxi is not running in IRC client and if
is running in X, and if the grandparent is not 'login', will show the application
the shell is running in.
Example:
Info: Processes: 271 Uptime: 5:36 Memory: 3255.8/4048.5MB Runlevel: 3
Gcc sys: 4.7.2 alt: 4.0/4.2/4.4/4.5/4.6
Client: Shell (bash 4.2.37 - started in konsole) inxi: 1.8.33
and made cleaner the version data in verbose mode, non irc.
Fixed instance where program location would only show a dot . or relative path to inxi. Now
in version full will show the full path, or should.
Basic version line now show: inxi 1.8.30-00 (January 22 2013)
The verbose information/version shows the license information, website/irc support info, and
a few other changes.
Also fixed a small bug where the copyright shows current year, not the actual year of the inxi
copyright contained in the top comment header.
Continuing fixes for ARM cpus, it was noted that short form inxi failed to show cpu speed
derived from bogomips. That's because of the old min/max output that short form used.
Updated that section to now use N/A as flag, and if N/A for min/max speed, use the speed
given from first cpu array index, the one derived from bogomips for ARM/razberry pi.
Note that there is still no other ARM /proc/cpuinfo available to see if the razberry pi
fixes work for all ARM cpus, but the fixes will stop hangs and endless loops at worst,
and may also show some type of cpu speeds for ARM cpus that are not in razpi devices.
quick work around fix for razberrie pi, get cpu data hung on arm /proc/cpuinfo because
it doesn't use the standard processor : [digit] format, but uses a string in the
processor : field, which then hangs inxi which was expecting an integer.
Corrected this with a work around, but it will require a lot more ARM /proc/cpuinfo samples
before the support for ARM can be considered stable.
For cpu speed, following wikipedia, used bogomips being equal to 1x cpu speed, to derive cpu speed.
Better than nothing I guess, but will be wrong in other cases, particularly with dual core arm.
sorts, that's much easier to read. I also made the line lengths on that much more accurate
to avoid a bunch of long flags creating a longer line, and made the first line shorter to handle
the line starter text.
New tarball as well, no man page changes.
Not sure why this was left undone for so long, but here it is, nice and neat.
