>How can I find out how my BIOS identifies itself? When you boot (or reboot), often the first lines that appears on the screen is the BIOS 'identifying itself'. English is not my native language, it might not be the more appropriate expression.
In your case, I now know it is a BIOS made by AWARD. And often, there is a version shown... that was part of what I was asking. As it is shown for very short time, pressing 'pause' key while booting may be helpfull.

PnP 1.0a, DMI 2.0, SM BIOS 2.4, ACPI 1.0b I note the following: "Revolution energy saving design with DES advanced technology featuring hardware based Dynamic 4-Gear switching." -- suspend/resume with "Gigabyte GA-EG45M-DS2H" board causes dmesg WARNING: at /build/buildd/linux-2.6.28/arch/x86/kernel/setup.c:719 check_for_bios_corruption+0xdd/0xe0() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350192 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
