Looking into a bios update I wanted to have a look at my actual bios state. I gave the command dmidecode -s bios-version && dmidecode t11 on my Thinkpad. My system is opensuse 11.1 mainly KDE 4.3.1. Response was, command not found. Went into Google and found out that this function is called pmtools in openSUSE. In Yast found that I had this tool installed. pmtools in Konsole did give the same info: command not found. Uninstalled pmtools and installed it again without improvement. In the mean time I got my info from Puppy life which had no problems with dmidecode. I am just unhappy that I had to use some other Linux in order to find out details I should also have gotten with opensuse. Is something missing, did I make somewhere along the line a mistake? Somebody with an insight what has gone wrong? KDE 4.3.1? dmidecode, pmtools -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
