Hello, |

|
3 |
dmesg and /proc/meminfo do not reveal much useful information, |
4 |
to determine how many simm modules a machine has installed. |
5 |
|
6 |
So I tried lshw: |
7 |
|
8 |
*-memory |
9 |
description: System Memory |
10 |
physical id: 28 |
11 |
slot: System board or motherboard |
12 |
size: 512MB |
13 |
capacity: 3GB |
14 |
*-bank:0 |
15 |
description: DIMM DRAM Synchronous [empty] |
16 |
physical id: 0 |
17 |
slot: DDR 1 |
18 |
*-bank:1 |
19 |
description: DIMM DRAM Synchronous [empty] |
20 |
physical id: 1 |
21 |
slot: DDR 2 |
22 |
*-bank:2 |
23 |
description: DIMM DRAM Synchronous |
24 |
physical id: 2 |
25 |
slot: DDR 3 |
26 |
size: 512MB |
27 |
width: 64 bits |
28 |

It looks pretty reliable. Are there any other tools for physically |
30 |
discovering the installed memory (simm etc) in a PC? I'd really be |
31 |
looking for the speed, type, |
32 |
etc sort of information, so I can order some more compatible ram, without |
33 |
opening up the case or looking at old invoices.... |
34 |
|
35 |
Ideas or other tools are of interest? |
