System Requirements
Availability of a standard monospace font for the proper display of system information.

Code for detecting the current window manager is missing from the initial release today. The corrected version of PupSysInfo-1.4 is now available. If you have the initial release, please download again.

Thanks

Testing 2.0... I get this message.. Not sure if it matters..

I think that Pup-SysInfo calls pupscan. Pupscan tests if pci.ids is found. If it is found, it calls lspci instead of scanpci (older way, not realible anymore). You need to update your lscpi.

Hi sc0ttman,

(thank you pemasu for the prior post)

Currently, PupSysInfo has four separate scenarios for the evaluation of PCI devices.

1 - If Barry's PupScan is available, PupSysInfo will use the PCI information generated by Pupscan (available in /tmp/chipnummod.txt). This will be the case in most recent Puppy derivatives.

2 - If PupScan is not available, PupSysInfo will check if the current version of lspci supports the -k switch. If so, PupSysInfo will use PCI information from lspci -knn. The -k switch, if supported, shows kernel drivers handling each device. If the -k switch is not supported, lspci may generate the following message: invalid option -- 'k'.

3 - If the -k switch of lspci is not supported, PupSysInfo will check if the deprecated scanpci utility is available. If so, the scanpci information will be used for the PupSysInfo PCI report.

4 - If scanpci is not available, PupSysInfo defaults to lspci -nn.
