Description Adam Stokes 2008-05-22 10:57:06 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #447890 +++

Description of problem:

# FIXME: what is this for?
tmpreg = ""
for hwmodule in commands.getoutput('cat /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/modules.pcimap
| cut -d " " -f 1 | grep "[:alpha:]" | sort -u').split("n"):
--- snip ---

Form "[:alpha:]" outputs keywords which contain only "a", "l", "p", "h", "a" and
":".
If hardware.py output keywords which contain alphabet, form should be "[[:alpha:]]".
