Luckily, Dale mentioned this. Try smbios -t SMB_TYPE_BASEBOARD:
ID SIZE TYPE
2 52 SMB_TYPE_BASEBOARD (base board)
Manufacturer: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
Product: P35-DS3L
Version: x.x
Serial Number:
Chassis: 0
Flags: 0x0
Board Type: 0x0
or prtdiag:
System Configuration: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. P35-DS3L
(...)
Both of these work quite nicely on my generic hardware and produce
reasonable, readable values.
On my no-name Sun desktop with an AMD CPU, smbios says it does not
work :(
It's actually SMB_TYPE_SYSTEM that you want.
smbios -t SMB_TYPE_SYSTEM
Ok, because you don't want to believe without seeing the actual error:
# smbios -t SMB_TYPE_SYSTEM
smbios: failed to load SMBIOS: System does not export an SMBIOS table
from a Sun Ultra20.
Well, yuck at that. Just came across this from our own Rich Teer and
Casper Dik regarding the Ultra 20:
