Also, I think instead of asking the user what type of hardware they |
2 |
have, they should be asked to attach the output of lspci, lsusb, and |
3 |
cat /proc/cpuinfo. |
4 |
I think someone else previously mentioned using a program called |
5 |
hwreport. I just gave it a try. It's only 11k and it's in portage. |
6 |
It basically just dumps info from various important entries under |
7 |
/proc and creates a tarball. So, after I installed it, I ran '# |
8 |
hwreport reportname' and it instantly created a reportname.tar.bz2 |
9 |
file. This could be attached with the survey. |
10 |
Of course, ideally it would be easier on the folks trying to sort out |
11 |
this information if there was a script to parse they surveys, extract |
12 |
the tarball and upload the info to a database, so you can just view |
13 |
the compiled info. |
