| daftykins | has anyone come across a Linux based utility that reliably reports memory channel count and configuration? e.g. a standard desktop system may support dual channel operation, but requires sufficient modules installed to actually enable it | 16:28 |
| daftykins | a mate has a dual CPU HP Z800 workstation and says neither the BIOS nor dmidecode helps | 16:28 |
| Nafallo | daftykins: lshw -C memory ? | 16:31 |
| daftykins | doesn't that just pull from the above? | 16:32 |
| Nafallo | I haven't read the source for it. | 17:17 |
| ali1234 | what about memtest86? | 17:30 |
| ali1234 | if that can't do it then nothing can | 17:30 |
| daftykins | i disagree there, it's often been wrong about the hardware it's running against | 17:35 |
| ali1234 | perhaps, but i think the only way the results could be improved is with an external hardware database. if the bios misreports then that's the only way really. | 17:37 |
| ali1234 | and since it's a configuration thing... there's probably no way to know for sure | 17:38 |
| daftykins | i suggested booting Windows and firing up CPU-Z :) | 17:41 |
| Nafallo | daftykins: physical examination? ;-) | 17:41 |
| ali1234 | look in the bios? | 17:41 |
| ali1234 | i dunno... | 17:41 |
| daftykins | you can't confirm memory channels engaged with your eyes XD | 17:42 |
| Nafallo | ah. so that was the problem indeed. | 17:43 |
| directhex | daftykins: dmidecode not working is weird | 18:54 |
