have one case where a laptop reports as pizza box, and desktops generally do too,
and they could be a server, or used as a server due to 1U form factor.
Now -M shows device type, like desktop, laptop, notebook, server, blade, vm (and tries to get vm type).
vm detection will take more work, for now I'm just going for the main ones used, but it will certainly
miss some because it's hard to detect them in some cases unless you use root features. Also note, in
most cases a container I believe will display as a vm, which is fine for now.
For BSDs, and older linux, there is a dmidecode fallback detection as well.
Basic support added for Budgie desktop detection. This is waiting more data, so the support will be
missing the version information. Go Budgie!!
Added /var/tmp and /var/log and /opt to basic partition data: -P
This will probably not impact more than a handful of people in the world, but that's fine.
Modified the static BIOS in -M to now show UEFI for actually UEFI booted systems, and, ideally,
UEFI [Legacy] for UEFI booting in bios legacy mode, and BIOS for all others. Hopefully this will
work ok, we'll see.
-B option now shows, if available, battery data. Quite good data for systems
with /sys battery data, only rudimentary for systems using dmidecode (BSDs).
dmidecode has no current voltage/charge/current supported capacity.
Main row shows charge and condition. Condition shows you have much capacity the
battery currently has vs its design capacity. Charge shows the Wh/percent of
current capacity of battery (NOT the rated design capacity).
-x adds battery vendor/model info, and battery status (like, charging, discharging,
full).
-xx adds battery serial number and voltage information. Note that voltage information
is presented as Current Voltage / Designed minimum voltage.
-xxx adds battery chemistry (like Li-ion), cycles (note: there's a bug somewhere in
that makes the cycle count always be 0, I don't know if that's in the batteries,
the linux kernel, but it's not inxi, just FYI, the data is simply 0 always in all
my datasets so far.
For dmidecode output, the location of the batter is also shown in -xxx
A sloppy unescaped / triggered a failure I didn't notice in partition info.
Please update your inxi packages immediately if your version is 2016-03-21 or newer.
on /etc/issue step to first test for os release and not mint, then lsb verison and
not mint, then /etc/issue. This should keep the mint detection working well, as long
as they keep mint string in the /etc/issue file, that is, but that's out of our control.
test for the non deprecated battery test, /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0 existence.
This resulted in failure to indicate 'portable' where applicable.
I may also now add battery information where applicable since that's easy to get from
/sys
1. Add amdgpu to possible xorg drivers list (and gpu sensors data)
2. switch to default dig command to get WAN ip. This is usually but not always faster than
the http method. Because the IP source is not truly trustworthy (run by cisco), I'm keeping a
fallback mode on 1 second time out failure of the previous http based methods. Added dig
to recommended tools list.
NOTE: missing product name/serial info, because it's not being treated by linux kernel
as a standard disk. Could not find that data anywhere in the system debugger dump.
If you know how to find the model name/number and or serial, let me know.
Also small fix, as noted: ip: should be ip-v4 to match with ip-v6, thanks mikaela.
Also some debugger fixes and updates.
