wait, you have a new system and it doesn't show a /proc/mdstat file?
Can you first of all confirm that it missing: cat /proc/mdstat want to make sure I didn't make a mistake there. Good point on the -b output, that should probably show nothing, agreed, if no data, or if no file. The lenovo is reporting what lenovo entered for each space, it's not incorrect, the mobo is lenovo, etc. Just like it could be hp, or gigabyte, or tyan. So there's no error there and nothing to correct. It's just not that interesting to see, but it is correct. Back to top |

Great, thanks, I actually only added in the missing /proc/mdstat test at the very last minute, glad I did.
1.8.1, removed RAID if either no devices found, or if no /proc/mdstat file exists. I tend to get a bit overenthusiastic about new features and showing them all off, but you were correct to note that -b should not show extra output that gives no real useful information. Back to top |

By the way, I had thought that /proc/mdstat was a file generated by the kernel, I see you are running everything new and up to date, apparently that assumption is not correct.
Here's what my /proc/mdstat looks like, similar os/kernel, pc hardware: :: Code :: cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [linear] [multipath] [raid0] [raid1] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [raid10] unused devices: <none> I had assumed all new kernels would show that if no raid was present, but your example clearly shows that assumption on my part was wrong. Always something to learn with new features, but I am glad I decided to handle what I thought would be highly fringe cases of no /proc/mdstat I do see an error on the distro line, that should be showing either antix or Debian unstable, not just: unstable. Do you have the file: /etc/antix-version and what is its contents, and do you have: /etc/issue and what is its content? or do you have: /etc/lsb-release and what is its content? /etc/issue should be something like this: :: Code :: cat /etc/issue
Debian GNU/Linux wheezy/sid \n \l Here's a sample, I bypassed the sidux distro output and made it show just debian: :: Code :: System: Host: ferd Kernel: 3.2.0-5.dmz.3-liquorix-686 i686 (32 bit)

there is no error, the /etc/antix-version is modified by me to show unstable, because text was to long for my taste. also the hostname is already antiX. /etc/issue and /etc/issue.net are empty, so they don't give away something in tty. inxi shows the correct info on a standard install of antiX in all the files.
i updated inxi to the new version and the error about raid from -b is gone, but it's still present in -F. if i get to a computer configured in raid i will test to see the output of the new feature. thanks for addressing the issue so fast. Back to top |

thanks for confirming, for -F it should show that, since it's more full output, and it is information to show that no raid is present, as with no audio card, no networking, etc.
-F basically shows all uppercase option line outputs, including now -R, and those are never not shown since the data that there is no such device is also very useful data to have at times. Inxi is now at 1.8.2 after fixing a small glitch that someone else's data exposed. Back to top |

This is just for information.

Oh, I should mention also that inxi now has a man page, both the text file and the gz actual man file on svn.
You can download it if you don't have an inxi package, and install it here, at least that's where it is on debian: /usr/share/man/man8 The gz is called: inxi.8.gz and can be direct downloaded here Simply download that, then as root, mv to the man directory, then type: man inxi and there it is! Linux Mint if they get the new cathbard inxi package will have this automatically, and siduction users if they update once the man stuff is in the siduction package will also get it. Currently the man page is pretty much the --help menus plus a few extra bits of info, but over time it might have more information on it. Back to top |

antiX users will also get it as part of the inxi-gui.deb package
