window column width help/version outputs. There is a significant slowdown to achieve this,
but I've optimized it as much as I could so it should be acceptable for most users now.
type if openrc). -xx shows init / rc version number. Change runlevel to target if
systemd and if non numeric runlevel given. Should support systemd/upstart/epoch/runit
sysvinit. Supports openrc as extra data if it's present. Rearranged -I line a bit but
really just exchanged Runlevel: for Init: v: Runlevel: default:
This is the first step, some of the init system ID methods are weak and non robust
and this may need to be revised, but it should for now identify systemd/upstart quite
accurately, and in most cases sysvinit. Note that to get sysvinit version number requires
tool: strings which in debian/ubuntu is in package binutils. I don't know the package names
for arch/fedora/etc for the recommends check tool in inxi yet.
I believe this will be good enough for a first draft version, but over time we'll get it
more fine tuned, but as it is now, it should cover at least 99% of users, which isn't bad.
for adding alternate display servers, like Wayland or Mir. Rather than release all the
stuff at once I'm going to do it bit by bit. Currently I have not found a wayland iso
test cd that boots in virtual box so I will have to wait to really add support there.
to show default runlevel, using systemd/upstart/sysvinit type default tests.
Fixed gtk library version detections, now will support dpkg/pacman version tests, which
should give more data to more people than previously, where the old tests usually would
return null unless gtk dev packages were installed on the system.
and so version numbers failed. Now first trying gnome-session to get version number.
Also, there's a bug in at least gtk detection in opensuse, not sure what it is, they could
be using a different syntax for the test:
pkg-config --modversion gtk+-3.0
returns no such package on gnome 3.10 installs, but I have no idea what package name to
test for there in this case.
So leaving gtk version bugs unhandled due to no user information or feedback, if you want
it fixed or if it works for your distro, let me know and also if it does not work, tell
me the correct commmand, with its output, to get gtk version.
That's for inxi -Sx output that is.
repo type output, the initial listing was not complete of possible syntaxes. Now handles:
Nonfree Updates (Local19) /mnt/data/mirrors/mageia/distrib/cauldron/x86_64/media/nonfree/updates
as well, apparently that is a possible output format in certain cases with urpmq.
Non urpmq distros ignore this update, there are no other actual changes.
Other distros than Mandriva, Mageia, no other changes so no need to update unless you want to.
This adds support for Mandriva, Mageia. urpmq parsing is similar but not identical to pisi.
are actually loaded. Since we can't fix xorg, inxi will try to work around this bug by validating
one step further in the Xorg.0.log data, to confirm that drivers noted as loaded/unloaded/failed are
actually running the display(s) of the system.
There is a possible case of error that might happen due to this change in the case of a system with
a complex xorg that uses two drivers/modules to run two different displays, ie, nvidia on one, and amd
on the other, for example, or intel/nvidia, etc. However, if that bug appears, we'll get that data set
of debugging output and fix it at that point.
This fix repairs an existing xorg bug that is unlikely to get fixed any time soon (the call to load the
detected drivers, eg, vesa, intel, is repeated, causing a failure of driver already loaded on the second
occurance.
so I've updated that. -f for ARM now shows features instead of flags, and the -C regular cpu output does not
show cache/flags for arm cpus becuase they don't have those features.
Added some flags passed to various cpu functions and better detections of ARM cpu to handle dual core and other
issues that were not handled before as well, or at all.
cases. This required fixing some core logic assumptions that are not currently correct, particularly
on two cases, some xeon cpus fail to show core id for each core, showing 0 for all of them, second,
vm cpus do not show physical ids at all for at least intel, nor do they show core id.
While we can't get HT totally reliable, particularly for vm xeon, since inxi has no way to know in
that case if a core is attached to a physical core or a virtual one, all of them being virtual in that
case, but still inxi is now reporting the correct number of cores, or threads in vm xeons, and is not
showing multicore cpus as single core, which was the main issue.
This required redoing the counter logic for the cpu/core/physical arrays, now they are set independently,
and can handle any of the others not being set, without creating an error or failure condition.
Also added in last check for a certain intel case where core id is 0 but > 1 physical cores exist, that
now also shows the correct cpu / core count.
While this is tested on many data sets of proc cpuinfo, it's still possible there is a fringe case I have
not seen that will trigger yet another unexpected behavior.
zypp or yum it will work. If it's both then it will show only one I believe, if that's a possible scenario, no idea.
Added one more fix for those pesky intel vm cpu core errors, now if /proc/cpuinfo shows no siblings at all,
and no core_id, but does have physical id, it will use the count for physical id as a default for core count.
Not perfect, but better than calling a dual core cpu a single core.
There's still a lot of mysteries with vm versions of kvm cpus, for example, if you see a dual core xeon, is
that actually one core with ht, or two cores? There is no way to find that information out that I can see that is
reliable.
/proc/partitions of 253, which made the disk totals fail to show up at all. Added that in.
Moved sourcing of configuration files to right after initialize_data so that some variables
can be forced to different values before the next set of system/app checks.
This is to allow specifically turning off, for some headless servers where $DISPLAY is not
null due to a bash configuration bug, these:
B_SHOW_X_DATA='false'
B_RUNNING_IN_X='false'
Setting those two to false in inxi.conf will turn off all the X checks etc even if the $DISPLAY
is set to non null.
Added in support for ksplice kernel version, requires installed uptrack-uname, if that is
present and if uptrack-name kernel version is different from uname then it will add (ksplice)
to kernel version string, and use ksplice kernel version. Also created a single function
get_kernel_version for use by short form/long form inxi output.
For intel xeon cpus, trying a work around for a bug in /proc/cpuinfo which fails to show core_id
or physical_id for cpus, using siblings / 2 for xeons with no actual core counts.
Fixed a bug that made fixes for multimounted partitions fail for disk used. Added in support
for also excluding single partitions mounted to different places.
That was too hard to type and too hard to remember. Also do more dyanamic reordering of weather
output, depending on how much data is present, and how many x options are used.
Added error handling for generic deprecated options, and for options that do not have the correct
syntax for OPTARG, like with -W.
This should about do it for the weather option for now unless I missed something somewhere.
looked a bit odd, but for maintainers, it's not an issue, there will be an actual release later in a week or so with resorted weather
data probably, we'll see.
-! location= option, to indicate that users must replace space with + themselves.
Because of how bash handles these options, inxi cannot add in + signs itself automatically.
This should be closer to cleanup of this new feature.
