Bugs:
1. If you consider failure to identify a mounted yet hidden partition a bug, then
that bug is fixed, but I consider that as more of a fix than a bug.
Fixes:
1. Added more device pattern ID for odroid C1 and C2, these are now pretty well
supported.
2. inxi failed to handle a certain type of hidden partition, so far only seen
with udiskctl mounted TimeShift partitions, but this may be a more general udisk
issue, but so far not enough information. The fix is to use the lsblk data to
build up missing partitions, so this fix is for non legacy Linux systems only.
The fix works pretty well, but it's hard to know until we get a lot more real
world data, but given so far I've received only one issue report on it, I
suspect this is not a common situation, but you never know, it would never
have shown up in datasets unless I had looked specifically for it, so it may
be more common than I think.
3. Cleaned up and simplified new --admin -p and -d logic.
Enhancements:
1. For debugging, renamed all user debugger switches to have prefix --debug.
These options are to help debug debugger failures, and so far have been tested
and solved the failures, so I'm adding them all to the main man and help menu,
thus raising them to the level of supported tools. These were enormously helpful
in solving proc or sys debugger hangs.
* --debug-proc
* --debug-proc-print
* --debug-no-sys
* --debug-sys
* --debug-sys-print
2. Added findmnt output to debugger, that may be useful in the future. Also added
df -kTPa to also catch hidden partitions in debugger.
3. Added in another user level debugger, triggered with --debug-test-1 flag. This
will do whatever operation is needed at the time for that user. Some issues can
only be resolved by the user on their machine.
4. More disk vendors and matches!!! Thanks linuxlite/linux hardware database!
Bugs:
1. There was a missing main::is_int test that in some instances triggered
error. This is corrected.
2. More of a fix, but legacy devices were not matching NIC to IF because
the /sys path was not a link as it is now. I made a separate function to
handle that match test so it could be more readily be worked with.
Fixes:
1. Arch/Manjaro presented yet another Xorg.wrapper path, this time /usr/lib. Why?
who knows. That to me is a bug, but since if it's not handled in inxi, it makes
it look like inxi has a server: -G bug, I worked around it. Again. This creates
the bug when you do not use the actual true path of Xorg where Xorg.wrapper
complains and will not show -version data. Why move this? why use that wrapper
thing? I don't know, makes no sense to me.
2. More MIPS data, thanks manjaro ARM people. This made MIPS much better, though
it will certainly need more work.
3. Better ARM support, added in devicetree strings, which helps pad out the
Devices IDs, albeit with very little data, but at least the devices are detected.
Thanks Manjaro ARM people there again.
4. Removed Upstart init test for arm/mips/sparc devices. This test made MIPS
device totally puke and die, killed networking, so since very few upstart running
systems will be arm/mips devices, I decided there better safe than sorry.
5. Found another uptime syntax case, MIPS as root does not have the users item.
6. Many tweaks to SOC data generators, will catch more categories, but the lists
will never be done since each device can be, and often is, random re the syntax.
7. USB networking failed to test usb type for 'network', which led to failed
ids on some device strings. SOC types are now filtered through a function
to create consistent device type strings for the per device tool to use to
assign each to its proper @device_<type> array.
8. For pciconf/FreeBSD, cleaned up device class strings to get rid of 0x and
trailing subsubclass values, this converts it into the same hex 4 item string
that is used by GNU/Linux/lspci so I can apply consistent rules to all pci
types, no matter what the generator source is, lspci, pcidump, pciconf, and
eventually pcictl if I can get netbsd running.
9. Fixed internal --dbg counts for various features, and updated docs for that.
10. Fixed ARM / MIPS missing data messages, they were redundant.
11. Ongoing, moving excessive source comments to inxi-values.txt and inxi-data.txt.
12. Added unity-system-compositor as mir detection, who knew? I guess that was
its production application name all along? Oh well.
Enhancements:
1. Added basic support for OpenIndiana/Solaris/SunOS as a bsd type. Just enough
to make errors not happen.-repos
2. future proofed unix/bsd detections just to avoid the unset $bsd_type of non
BSD unix.
3. Added S6 init system to init tool.
4. Added OpenBSD pcidump to new DeviceData feature. Includes now <root required>
message on Device-x: lines if not root. All working.
5. Fully refactored the old pci stuff to DeviceData package/class, due to adding
so many types to that, it made sense to make it a single class.
6. Did the same to USBData, because of lsusb, usbdevs, and /sys usb, made sense
to integrate the data grabber into one package/class
7. Added speed: item to USB:, it shows in Mb/s or Gb/s
8. Added Odroid C1/C2 handling, which is one big reason I opted to refactor the
devices data logic into DeviceData.
9. Added ash shell, not sure if that detection will work, but if it does, it will
show.
10. As part of the overall DeviceData refactor, I moved all per type data into
dedicated arrays, like @device_graphics, @device_audio, @device_network, etc,
which lets me totally dump all the per device item tests, and just check the
arrays, which have already been tested for on the construction of the primary
DeviceData set. Moved all per type detections into DeviceData so that is now
one complete logic block, and the per type data generators don't need to know
about any of that logic at all anymore.
11. Added sway, swaybar, way-cooler as window managers, info items. Not 100%
positive about the --version, their docs weren't very consistent, but I think
the guess should be right if their docs weren't incorrect.
12. Added vendor: item to network, not sure why I kept that off when I added
vendor: to audio and graphics. It made sense at the time, but not now, so now
-GNA all have vendor: if detected.
13. More device vendors!! The list never ends. Thanks linuxlite/linux hardware
database, somehow you have users that manage to use every obscure usb/ssd/hdd
known to humanity.
14. Big update to --admin, now has the following:
A: partitions: shows 'raw size: ' of partition, this lets users see the amount
of file system overhead, along with the available size as usual.
B: partitions: show percent of raw in size:
C: partitions: show if root, block size of partition file system. Uses
blockdev --getbsz <part>
D: partition: swap: show swappiness and vfs cache pressure, with (default)
or (default <default value) added. This apparently can help debugging some
kernel issues etc. Whatever, I'll take someone's word for that.
E: Disks: show block size: logical: physical:
15. New option and configuration item: --partition-sort / PARTITION_SORT
This lets users change default mount point sort order to any available ordering
in the partition item. Man page and help menu show options.
16. Going along with the MIPS fixes, added basic support for OpenWRT, which uses
an immensely stripped down busybox (no ps aux, for example), maybe because it
only runs as root user/ not sure, anyway, took many fixes.
Changes:
1. Changed usb: 1.1 to rev: 1.1 because for linux, we have the USB revision number,
like 3.1. Note that this is going to be wrong for BSDs, but that's fine.
2. Changed slightly the output of Memory item, now it follows the following rules:
A: if -m/--memory is triggered (> -v4, or -m) Memory line always shows in Memory:
item, which makes sense. Note that -m overrides all other options of where Memory
minireport could be located.
B: if -tm is triggered, and -I is not triggered, Memory shows in in -tm
C: if -I is triggered, and -m is not triggered, Memory: shows in -I line.
D: no change in short form inxi no arg output, Memory is there.
Bugs:
1. Big bug found on certain systems, they use non system memory memory arrays, inxi
failed to anticipate that situation, and would exit with error when run as root for
-m when it hit those array types. These arrays did not have modules listed, so the
module array was undefined, which caused the failure. Thanks Manjaro anonymous
debugger dataset 'loki' for finding this failure.
This is literally the first dataset I've seen that had this issue, but who knows
how many other system boards will show something like that as well.
Fixes:
1. Related to bug 1, do not show the max module size item if not system memory
and size is less than 10 MiB. Assuming there that it's one of these odd boards.
Enhancements:
1. For bug 1, extended Memory: report to include array type if not system memory.
That instance had Video Memory, Flash Memory, and Cache Memory arrays along with
the regular System Memory array. Now shows: use: Video Memory for example if not
System Memory to make it clear what is going on.
2. Added basic Parrot system base, but for some inexplicable reason, Parrot changed
the /etc/debian_version file to show 'stable' instead of the release number. Why?
Who knows, it would be so much easier if people making these derived distros would
be consistent and not change things for no good reason.
3. Added a few more pattern matches to existing vendors for disks. As usual, thanks
linuxlite/linux hardware database for the endless lists of disk data.
4. Added internal dmidecode debugger switches, that makes it much easier to inject
test dmidecode data from text files using debugger switches internally.
5. Added -Cxx item, which will run if root and -C are used, now grabs L1 and L3
cache data from dmidecode and shows it. I didn't realize that data was there, not
sure how I'd missed it all these years, I guess pinxi really is much easier to work
on! This only runs if user has dmidecode permissions from root or sudo.
Thanks:
1. AntiX forums, for testing -C --admin, suggestions, always helpful.
Bugs:
1. Added switch to set @ps_gui, I forgot case where info block was only thing
that used ps_gui (Nitrux kde nomad latte case). This led to no info: data if
other ps_gui switches not activated. Now each block that can use it activates it.
Fixes:
1. To clarify issue #161 added help/man explanation on how to get colors in cases
where you want to preserve colors for piped or redirected output. Thanks fugo.
2. LMDE 3.0 released, slightly different system base handling, so refactored to
add Debian version, see enhancement 2. Tested on some old vm instances, improved
old system Debian system base id, but it's empirical, distro by distro, there is
no rule I can use to automatically do it, sadly.
3. 'Motherboard' sensors field name added, a few small tweaks to sensors. This
was in response to issue #159, which also raised a problem I was not really
aware of, user generated sensor config files, that can have totally random
field names. Longer term solution, start getting data from sys to pad out
lm-sensors data, or to handle cases where no lm-sensors installed.
4. Fixed kwin_11 and kwin_wayland compositor print names, I'd left out the _,
which made it look strange, like there were two compositors or something.
5. Fixed latte-dock ID, I thought the program name when running was latte, not
latte-dock. inxi checks for both now. Thanks Nitrux for exposing that in vm test.
6. Sensors: added in a small filter to motherboard temp, avoid values that are
too high, like SYSTIN: 118 C, filters out to only use < 90 C. Very unlikely a
mobo would be more than 90C unless it's a mistake or about to melt. This may
correct anoymous debugger dataset report from rakasunka.
Enhancements:
1. Added --admin to -v 8 and to --debugger 2x
2. Expanded system base to use Debian version tool, like the ubuntu one, that
lets me match version number to codename. The ubuntu one matches code names to
release dates. Added Neptune, PureOS, Sparky, Tails, to new Debian system base
handler.
3. Big enhancement: --admin -C now shows a nice report on cpu vulnerabilities,
and has a good error message if no data found. Report shows:
Vulnerabilities: Type: [e.g. meltdown] status/mitigation: text explanation.
Note: 'status' is for when no mitigation, either not applicable, or is vulnerable.
'mitigation' is when it's handled, and how. Thanks issue #160 Vascom from Fedora
for that request.
4. The never-ending saga of disk vendor IDs continues. More obscure vendors,
more matches to existing vendors. Thanks linuxlite/linux hardware database
Changes:
1. Reordered usb output, I don't know why I had Hubs and Devices use different
ordering and different -x switch priorities, that was silly, and made it hard to
read.
Now shows:
Device/Hub: bus-id-port-id[.port-id]:device-id info: [product info]
type/ports: [devices/hubs] usb: [type, speed]
-x adds drivers for devices, and usb: speed is now default for devices, same as
Hubs. Why I had those different is beyond me.
The USB ordering is now more sensible, the various components of each
matching whether hub or device.
Unfixable or Won't Fix:
1. Unable to detect Nomad desktop. As far as I can tell, Nomad is only a theme
applied to KDE Plasma, there is no program by that name detectable, only a
reference in ps aux to a theme called nomad.
2. Nitrux system base ID will not work until they correct their /etc/os-release file.
3. Tails live cd for some inexplicable reason uses non standard /etc/os-release
field names, which forces me to either do a custom detection just for them, or for
them to fix this bug. I opted for ignoring it, if I let each distro break standard
formats then try to work around it, the distro ID will grow to be a 1000 lines long
easily. Will file distro bug reports when I find these from now on.

Bugs:
1. A long standing bug was finally identified and fixed. -n/-i would fail to match
a Device to the right IF in cases where they had the same chip / vendor IDs. Added
busID for non Soc type devices to fix that. I hope. This fix has been tested on a
machine that had this bug, and it is now corrected. Thanks skynet for the dataset.
2. deepin-wm was failing to get listed correctly with new fixes, this is corrected.
Fixes:
1. mate version was depending on two tools, mate-about and mate-session, which
somewhat randomly vary in which has the actual highest version number. Fix was to
run both in MATE for version, and run those through a new version compare tool.
Thanks mint/gm10 for reporting that bug.
2. -Gxx compositors: added some missing ones that were being checked for in-
correctly.
3. For distro id, fixed a glitch in the parser for files, now correctly removes
empty () with or without spaces in it.
4. Got rid of ' SOC?' part of no data for ram or slots, that also triggers in non
SOC cases, so best to not guess if I can't get it right.
Enhancements:
1. More disk vendor ID matches, also, somehow missed QEMU as vendor, thanks to
linux hardware database (linuxlite) for great samples of vendor/product strings.
2. Added a bunch of compositors, found a new source that listed a lot inxi did not
have already.
3. Added version v: for some compositors in -Gxxx.
4. New program_data() tool provides an easier to use simple program version/print
name generator, including extra level tests, to get rid of some code that repeats.
5. Found some useful QEMU virtual machines for ARM, MIPS, PPC, and SPARC, so
made initial debugging for each type, so basic working error free support is well
on its way for all 4 architectures, which was unexpected. More fine tunings to
all of them to avoid bugs, and to catch more devices, as well.
Note that QEMU images are hard to make, and they were not complete in terms of
what you would see on physical hardware, so I don't know what features will work
or not work, there may be further variants in audio/network/graphics IDs that
remain unhandled, new datasets always welcome for such platforms!
6. Found yet another desktop! Added Manokwari support, which is at this point
a reworking of gnome, but it was identifiable, minus a version number.
7. Added deepin and blankon to system base supported list, these hide their debian
roots, so I had to use the manual method to provide system base.
Bugs:
1. A result of the issue #156 USB refactor, I discovered that the --usb sort order,
which was based on Bus+DeviceID, in fact is wrong, pure and simple. This was exposed
by using a second USB hub on a bus, the Device IDs are not really related in any
clearly logical way to the actual position on the bus. The solution was to fully
refactor the entire USB logic and then use generated alpha sorters based on the full
bus-port[.port] ID. Device ID is now printed last in the ID string, like so: 1-4:1.
Note that Device IDs start at 1 for each bus, regardless of how many hubs you have
attached to that port.
2. Certain situations triggered a bug in Optical devices, I'd forgotten to change
$_ to $key in two places. Since that part didn't normally get triggered, I'd never
noticed that bug before. Thanks TinyCore for exposing that glitch!
Fixes:
1. On legacy systems, fluxbox --version does not work, -v does. Corrected.
2. for --usb, network devices should now show the correct 'type: Network'.
For some weird reason, the people who made the usb types didn't seem to consider
many key devices, scanners, wifi/ethernet adapters, and those are almost always
"Vendor defined class".
3. A really big fix, for instances where system is using only Busybox, like
TinyCore, or booting into any system running busybox for whatever reason, now
avoids the various errors when using busybox ps, which only for example outputs
3, not 11, default columns for ps aux, and which does not support ps -j, which
is used in the start/shell client information. This gets rid of a huge spray
of errors, and actually allows for pretty complete output from systems that only
have busybox tools installed. This should cover everything from TinyCore to MIPS
to ARM systems that run minimalist Linux. Note that this fix goes along with the
/sys based USB parser, since such systems may have USB, but are unlikely to have
lsusb installed, but do have /sys USB data.
4. In some cases, strings /sbin/init would trigger a false version result, fixed
that logic so now it rarely will do that.
Enhancements:
1. Added Mosksha desktop, that's a Bodhi fork of Enlightenment E17; added qtile
window manager (no version info).
2. Added Bodhi detection; Salix + base slackware; kde neon system base;
3. Added support for slaptget repos, basic, it may not be perfecct.
4. More disk vendors, and matches for existing vendors.
5. Full rewrite of USB data, in --usb, -A, and -N, along with core usb data engines.
This makes lsusb optional, though recommended (because it has a better vendor/
product ID to string internal database) than /sys data. This was in response
to a second set of issues in #156 by gm10, USB drivers.
Depending on the system, using only /sys data, while slightly less informative,
is between 20 and 2000 milliseconds faster, so if you want speed, either use the
new --usb-sys option, or the configuration file USB_SYS=[true|false] option.
1. switched to cleaner more efficient data structures
2. added ports count to hub report, linux and bsd.
3. added [--usb|-A|-N] -xxx serial for Device items, if present.
4. added --usb -xx drivers, per interface, can be 1 or more drivers.
5. fully refactored -A and -N usb device logic, far cleaner and simple now,
much easier to work with, no more hacks to find things and match them.
6. USB type: now comes from /sys, and is in general going to be more accurate
than the lsusb -v based method, which was always an ugly and incomplete hack.
As with drivers, it also now lists all the interface types found per device, not
just the first one as with the previous method. Note that HID means the more
verbose: Human Interface Device, but I shortened it. Now that the type: data is
created by inxi reading the class/subclass/protocal IDs, and then figuring out
what to do itself, I can have quite a bit more flexibility in terms of how type
is generated.
7. added --usb -xxx interfaces: [count] for devices, which lists the device
interface count. This can be useful to determine if say, a usb/keyboard adapter
is a 2 interface device. Note that Audio devices generally have many interfaces,
since they do more than 1 thing (audio output, microphone input, etc.).
8. Support for user configuration file item: USB_SYS=[true|false]. This is useful
if you want to see only the /sys version of the data, or if you want the significant
speed boost not using lsusb offers, particularly on older systems with a complex
USB setup, many buses, many devices, etc.
New option --usb-tool overrides USB_SYS value, and forces lsusb use.
9. New options: --usb-sys - forces all usb items to use /sys data, and skip lsusb.
Note that you still have to use the feature options, like --usb, -A, or -N. This
can lead to a significant improvement in execution time for inxi.
10. Rather than the previous bus:device ID string, to go along with the internal
sorting strings used, inxi now shows the real Bus / port /port ids, like:
1-3.2.1:3 - Bus-Port[.port]:device id.
6. Added support for Xvesa display server. Thanks for exposing that one, TinyCore!
7. Added tce package manager to repos. That's the tinycore package manager.
Changes:
1. big one, after 10 plus years, the venerable 'Card-x:' for -A,-N, and -G has been
replaced by the more neutral 'Device-x:'. This was a suggestion by gm10 from Mint
in issue #156
This makes sense because for a long time, most of these devices are not cards, they
are SOC, motherboard builtin, USB devices, etc, so the one thing they all are are
some form of a device, and the one thing that they are all not is a Card. Along with
the recent change from HDD: to Local Storage in Disks: this brings inxi terminology
out of the ancient times and into the present. Thanks for the nudge gm10.
Removed:
See inxi-perl/docs/inxi-fragments.txt for removed blocks.
1. Entire parser for lsusb -v, now it all runs either usbdevs or lsusb, and if Linux
and not lsusb, it will use /sys exclusively, otherwise it uses /sys data to complete
the lsusb vendor/product strings.
2. Two functions that were used by -A and -N to match usb devices and get their /sys data,
that became redundant since it all now goes through the /sys parser already, so those
features can get the data pre-parsed from the @usb arrays.

Fixes:
1. Added support for new ARM SOC types, including chromebook ARM. Note that so far I
have been unable to find a way to detect MMC networking, at least in a meaningful
way. I know where the data is, but I can't figure out how to reasonably integrate it
into the main ARM soc/device generator logic because it's fundamentally different
from most platform or devicetree data.
2. Added alternate battery tests, this should cover a wide range of alternate
battery IDs, while still preserving the distinction between system power batteries,
and device batteries. The detection is now far more dynamic, and can handle
unknown syntax for battery ID, while not losing the ability to correctly identify
device batteries (like mice, keyboards, etc).
3. Trying a somewhat unreliable hack to get cpu variant for arm devices where the
current method fails. this may be removed if it causes false ID in the future.
4. Excluded all /driver/ paths from ARM SOC @pci generation, those give read errors
even as root.
5. Fixed a few defective wm version detections.
Enhancements:
The -S line continues to see many improvements.
1. Greatly expanded the set of info: items, now it covers all the toolbars,
panels, and docks that I could find, plus a few things like icewmtray, where the
wm has a built in panel. While there are probably more bar/panel/dock tools out
there, and more will get added if or when they are encountered, now info: shows
far more variants than ever before, and covers the range of options simpler wm
users have for bars, trays, and panels. If I missed one that is detectable, by
all means show how to detect it!
2. Fine tuned and added a few more window managers, and added version for some that
were not showing versions.
3. Added 3 more dm version handlers, slim, gdm, gdm3, and refactored that code to
use the same program_values/program_version logic that the other tools use.
4. A few more obscure and usb stick vendor IDs added.
Fixed some subtle and not subtle issues that I've noticed recently.
Bugs:
1. The color scheme selector failed to remove the global value when a non global
setting was used. This led to global values never getting removed, even though
the text output said it would be, which is confusing, obviously, and always
overriding the color selected. Thanks CentOS for helping find that one.
Fixes:
1. Fixed possible corrupted user inxi.conf values. Now skips null values, and
fully validates as integer integer values.
2. Fixed fvwm-crystal detections, integrated it into new refactored desktop logic.
3. For systems without glxinfo or running inxi out of gui/desktop, Xorg was in many
cases failing to show version, which made it not show anything for server: except
N/A. This is caused by a relatively recent change in behaviors in xorg, where you
have to run it directly from it's true path, which is something like /usr/lib/xorg
or /usr/lib/server-xorg at which point the error:
/usr/lib/xorg-server/Xorg.wrap: Only console users are allowed to run the X server
Figuring this out was tricky, and who the heck knows why Xorg -version would even
return such a silly error in the first place, but there you have it. Next time
you wonder why inxi is so long, this is why, endless churn in basic and complex
things! The fix is injecting the optional xorg paths into @paths right before,
and removing them right after, which avoids adding clutter to the @paths.
4. A ZFS fix, I'd noticed this one a while back, but after looking at the zfs
Ubuntu tutorial page, I realized that this is the norm now, which is building zfs
with /dev/sda (no partitions). This lead to failing to detect the zfs components,
and reporting a bunch of partitions as unmounted which were part of that /dev/sdb
type component array. By allowing /dev/sd[a-z] I fixed both errors at the same time,
but I don't know if this syntax extends to say, nvme zfs as well. Note that when
you build zfs arrays with say, /dev/sdb /dev/sdc you'll see two partitions per
disk, /dev/sdx1 which is the main data, and /dev/sdx2, which is a tiny 8mB partition,
no idea what it's for.
5. Fixed missing konversation and hexchat version numbers in -I, finally found
what was going on there. Note that hexchat --version used to pop up a gui, but
I guess he finally fixed that, I am hoping.
6. Fixed some gentoo repo detections, but also found more variants. Not sure what
exactly is going on with repos there, will wait for gentoo user issue reports to
really lock those down.
7. BSD fixes, turns out FreeBSD uses that same map ... syntax in df -kT as OSX...
Also made sure to load sysctl data for -S row, I'd forgotten about the compiler
test there which needs that data.
8. Fixed herbstluftwm version detection, turns out it's another one of those that
passes the entire path to the version program, so it shows: /sbin/herbsuftwm 0.22.0
which broke the regex, easy fix.
9. Completed refactoring of DesktopData, now it's all data array driven for most
wm, desktops, etc, which makes adding/removing one very easy. All core data is now
in program_values to allow for automated detections.
Enhancements:
1. With fix 1, added check_int and check_number utilities, these validate that inxi
internal numeric or integer values actually are what they are supposed to be. This
uses a neat Perl trick that makse the checks super fast and super accurate. Moved
all internal int/numeric test regex to use these.
2. Added file based version number detection, that was done for Deepin, which uses
/etc/deepin-version for its version number, but it can be used for anything.
3. Added Deepin and deepin window managers, Lumina, added bspwm wm, fixed muffin
detections. Note that lumina has a weird behavior where when run outside of pinxi,
it outputs to stdout, but inside of pinxi, to stderr, who the heck knows how that
happens!
4. Added zorin to supported base: distros.
5. Even more disk vendors added! The list of no-name off brand chinese ssd vendors
appears to be endless! Added some more specific ids to capture unique strings
that can be linked to a vendor.
6. Added /usr/home to default -P paths, that's used instead of /home in the real
world, so why not show it?
7. Because qt detection is possible, I've extended qt toolkit detection, but it's
also not super accurate, but it's far better than gtk tk was, so I'm leaving
that in. I also extended it to more wm/desktops since more are using qt now.
Note: budgie 11 is going to be qt, but there's no way to distinguish between 11 and
gtk 10 without doing a bunch of hacks so I'm leaving that alone.
8. Found a possible distro id source, added /etc/calamares detections to debugger,
I'll see if that shows some consistent patterns before I implement a last fallback
test for distro IDs. It may work.
Removed:
1. Giving up on fake/slow/inaccurate GTK toolkit detections, removed the entire
codeblock and stored in docs/inxi-fragments.txt, but I'm not going to do package
manager type version tests anymore, if we can't get the data directly from a program
or file, it's not going to happen, plus the gtk installed on the system means nothing
in relation to the gtk version used to build the desktop.
Fixes:
1. Removed /dev/zram type data from swap partitions, since that's ram, it's
not a partition, obviously.
2. More alternate IPMI syntax found, that's clearly going to take a while to have
most syntaxes handled.
3. Small lm-sensors adjustment, fringe cases might scramble up hwmon and gpu
temps, this is now handled.
Enhancements:
1. Added disk vendors, udinfo.
2. Exciting! New Architecture: MIPS! First datasets, confirmed working. This led to
more abstracting of the previously ARM specific logic to be for SOC in general.
3. Related to 2, added in fallback busybox cases for partition data without fs.
4. Added window managers, xmonad, ratpoison, 9dm, gala (for Pantheon), notion,
windowlab
5. Added Pantheon desktop detection. Note, unable to find a way to get version
number.
6. IMPI sensors: added in psu fans, dimm temp.
7. New -Cxxx option: cpu boost (aka turbo), state enabled / disabled, only shows
if system has that option.
Changes:
1. Made toolkit for -S be -xx instead of -x, only Trinity/KDE and XFCE have that
data.
