384 looks clean, Thanks a lot! I like the partition detail supporting mmcblk, this will help me debug some installer issues on the T100CHI

ok, I've gotten most of the toughest bugs solved. 0386 has all the main bugs I know about as handled as they can be given the available data.

the cpu die issue I thought I could do in a certain way, but it turns out I can't, /proc/cpuinfo can't be used to detect > 1 cpu die, so I have to run other tests for ARM, that do appear to be reliable so far, and for ryzen, which is also reliable according to the docs I read. Basically ryzen is split into blocks of 8 cores, so the die count is rounded up core count / 8. Basic.

The missing networking stuff is resolved I believe, now all missing networking IF will show under the main CARD report with IF-ID-1: for example, incrementing. I found long lists of IFs on say, big arm servers, hard to read, so I made the line starter more obvious.

I don't know if I've missed anything else, let me know, I think this largely covers it, barring more undefined data errors, which I'm still getting now and then from various user systems, but fewer by far.

debugging and logging is enhanced a lot, which makes debugging failures a lot easier.

jbMacAZ, I looked in the data to see if I could get more mmcblk data, like the device name, but I couldn't find that anywhere, if you find a way to discover that, let me know. I'll take a look in /dev/disk/... to see if there's anything there.

biker, yours looks solid, that's a relief, lol. I'm very impressed by the amount of failures and glitches everyone found, on all 10 of my test systems, when I announced beta testing, I was getting no errors, or of course I wouldn't have announced it ready to test, so the range of hardware/os has really been great to expose a lot of untested and trusted as not null data. More pops up all the time, but the flow is slowing to a trickle now.

I still technically have two features to complete, raid, and bsd hard disks, but I'm waiting for the bugs to finish to get those done, I already discovered a wrong assumption with zfs raid reports that will require redoing the raid logic a bit to handle that.

So it's maybe 1 week from final release, but ALL errors, glitches, bugs, small oversights, whatever, are show stoppers as far as I'm concerned, and I won't release pinxi as inxi 3.0.0 until nobody can find anything wrong or glitchy with it.

jbMacAZ, I looked again, and realized I had to explicitly add the mmblk type to the advanced disk data collector.

0387 should now show model name and serial and maybe also firmware rev

387 does show the mmcblk model name now. Looking forward to the 3.0 release

Good news. that was a subtle issue I'd half noticed, but your dataset showed me that there was in fact a solution, that was pretty easy to do.

I still have some core stuff to do, RAID, which doesn't impact most users, but it's not complete, and has some issues, and BSD drives, also which won't impact most users, but I'd like to have those done before I do 3.0.0 since I want pinxi to be feature complete in all areas relative to inxi, and better in many, before I do 3.0.0. Could be next week, depends on if I get more difficult to resolve issues or not, which is to say, I want the issues if they exist of course.

The raid is just a solid day or so, plus testing it a bit, the bsd disks I have to sort of just hope it works because i don't have a freebsd system with that data, I have some, but not with that.

Just a heads up, as of 2.9.00-0452-p there's only one outstanding issue which most people aren't even noticing.

There's some issues re version data being wrong in places, but unless I get requested user datasets or feedback, I'm not going to worry about those, since I can't fix stuff I don't get data on. Not you guys, you found probably 50% of the bugs so far, heh.

But I'm looking at release in the next few days, though due to the number and seriousness of some bugs, I am opting for the iniitial 2.9.01 release rather than the bug free goal I'd had for 3.0.0.

A few of the major upgrades were: usb audio and network device gets the real drivers, not the fake strings early versions, and inxi, were providing. That was a nifty addition. ARM devices now will try to show machine data, which I discovered is sometimes in /proc/cpuinfo along with the cpu data. I discovered this while working on an arm cpu bug, I'd noticed it before but never thought about at as an actual data source.

There's still some glitches, but as noted, unless I get user datasets, I can't fix those. not you guys, you were great about supplying that stuff.

There's one remaining bug I'm going to try to fix today, related to how usb network devices actually are id'ed internally, that's an old bug, was in inxi too. Note that almost all bugs I've fixed in the past days are inxi bugs, except for some recent bugs I created while finishing up features.

Thanks for all the help

2.9.00-0456-p fixes the last bug I know about that's significant, failure to actually get the real IF of the usb nic device. If anyone has a usb networkingi device, and could post, from this version: pinxi -zixxx that would be appreciated so I can close this last issue, and release tomorrow.
