Is there a command that knows about my bios?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In our shop we have some software running on the windows boxes that
'audits' the machine. Most of the information is easily (and freely)
duplicated on a linux box (mostly by looking in /proc/cpuinfo
/proc/meminfo, /etc/sysconfig/hwconf, even  /etc/X11/xorg.conf|), but
I haven't found anything about bios. Anyone have a clue for me, how to
find out?

The windows program outputs stuff like this about bios:

Dell Inc. A06 SMBIOS 2.4 Date: 4/3/2008

As I was about to send this off I found smbios-sys-info, which fits
the bill. And it throws in info about the make and model of the PC for
good measure!

I guess I'll send this out anyhow, in case it helps someone else
googling howto detect bios info on linux or how to see bios info with
linux.

mahalo,
Dave
