Comment 2 Nils Philippsen 2006-11-22 16:32:49 UTC
I've built hwbrowser-0.29-1.el5 in RHEL5 which should contain a fix for this --
it should recognize ATA-, SATA-controllers now as well as be more gracious about
unknown device classes. You can download the package I built for testing from:

http://people.redhat.com/nphilipp/.private/hwbrowser-0.29-1.el5.noarch.rpm

Note that the package isn't signed, its checksums are:

MD5SUM: 0be7810d82cfb181fb66f715bbeb531e
SHA1SUM: 5521eb9e7b8a77d2c09a106939ac967ca79f194e

Please report back whether this fixes your problem.

*** Bug 219177 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 7 John Feeney 2006-12-14 21:22:06 UTC
Even there seems to be a fix for this bug, Dell wants to make sure that this is
shipped in 5.0.0 and fixes their i386 systems. Thus Dell wants it to be a
blocker for 5.0.0.

Comment 9 Rezwanul Kabir 2006-12-18 17:00:15 UTC
hwbrowser in comment#3 resolves bug 219177 as well.

Comment 10 Amit Bhutani 2007-01-10 18:27:37 UTC
Marking VERIFIED based on comment #9 plus the fact that RCS6 has later version
0.30-1.el5.

Comment 11 Amit Bhutani 2007-01-10 18:37:46 UTC
RH- Please close based on comments #9 and #10. Thanks.
