1.39.1. RHEA-2009:1456: enhancement update
Note
This update has already been released (prior to the GA of this release) as errata
RHEA-2009:1456
305
An updated dmidecode package that adds enhancements is now available.
The dmidecode package provides utilities for extracting x86 and ia64 hardware information from the
system BIOS or EFI, depending on the SMBIOS/DMI standard. This information typically includes
system manufacturer, model name, serial number, BIOS version, and asset tag.
It also often includes usage status for the CPU sockets, expansion slots (such as AGP, PCI, and ISA)
and memory module slots, and a list of input and output ports (such as serial, parallel and USB).
This updated package applies the following enhancement:
* the previous version of the dmidecode package was based on an upstream version (2.9), which
lacked support for various new hardware items. This updated package includes version 2.10, which
updates support for SMBIOS specification version 2.6 and improves DDR3 memory reporting. It adds
support for LGA1366 socket devices, decoding PCI-E Gen 2 slot IDs, and for a variety of processors,
including the Intel Core i7 and Dual-Core Celeron and Xeon Dual-, Quad- and Multi-Core 3xxx, 5xxx
and 7xxx series processors. (

Users of dmidecode are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which includes this enhanced
support.
