Testers welcome. Anyway, I may have an even better way of detecting IBMs. There is a memory zone near dmi anchor called "RSD PTR". It contains a 6-char string representing the system vendor, "IBM " in case this is an IBM system. This is really easy to detect. Thus, I would not need to call dmidecode from sensors-detect, which means we wouldn't need to support/distribute dmidecode anymore (but we still need to be root to do the test). I'll work an a perl test script and let you know when it's ready. Maybe asking people on the thinkpad to test it then would be a clever idea. -- Jean "Khali" Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
