Please elaborate. kenv(8) states that it first appeared in 4.1.1 and I don't recall seeing any reference to 'dmidump' in this thread. If you're referring to getting smbios data reported in kenv - that is up to your system/BIOS vendor: If they don't embed the information in the BIOS, FreeBSD can't report it. The response on my laptop is complete. My older whitebox desktops either don't have the data populated or don't report it at all. --=20 Peter Jeremy --ikeVEW9yuYc//A+q Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFFwuMO/opHv/APuIcRApppAKCvYPSiUp0CL8Yu0vXOv2iDLJnm7QCdETHZ PABAWbzNcU8OxscEwqEqYxY= =fQ9o -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --ikeVEW9yuYc//A+q--
