Hi, Another week, and a couple of very minor changes to fwts in Maverick 10.10.
== minor fixes == Bug LP#638783 - nx test, CPU number is being logged incorrectly on a test failure. cpufreq: fixed a typo. == fwts USB memory stick image == I've re-worked the script that wraps fwts so it now uses the 'dialog' tool for a little more eye-candy and to make it more usable. One can now run the batch and/or batch experimental tests. These are based on the daily Maverick builds, so one gets all the latest kernel, userspace + fwts goodness. Downloadable images: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/testing/maverick-desktop-i386-fwts.img http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/testing/maverick-desktop-amd64-fwts.img == fwts Natty 11.04 == I'm on feature freeze for fwts Maverick 10.10, so I'm piling in new features into the Natty branch: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=cking/fwts/.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/natty New Features: Better integration with 'dialog' tool progress bar: -D, --show-progress-dialog options romdump: dump BIOS ROM and option ROMs crs: check PCI host bridge configuration using _CRS apicinstance: check one instance of APIC table (MADT) mtrr: check for AMD SYSCFG[MttFixDramModEn] config ..and a re-write of the ACPI table reading code. This now extracts all the ACPI tables from the BIOS memory without the need of acpidump or the /sys/firmware tables. == fwts in OpenSUSE == Looks like fwts has now been included into OpenSUSE too. https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=fwts&project=home:reinauer ..so it's getting some traction. As ever, if you find a bug or want new features, file a bug, send me an email, ping me or send a patch or two!
