Some of these identify fine with lspci Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run sysreport 2. shedule hardware list refresh 3. compare lspci in sysreport to what RHN shows Actual Results: the following devices are missing: QLA2300 64-bit FC-AL Adapter QLA2300 64-bit FC-AL Adapter (yes, there are two) AHA-3960D / AIC-7899A U160/m AHA-3960D / AIC-7899A U160/m (yes, there are two) NetXtreme BCM5701 Gigabit Ethernet NetXtreme BCM5701 Gigabit Ethernet (yes, there are two) RAID subsystem HBA RAID subsystem HBA (yes, there are two) Whatsmore, at least the QLA2300 are wrong, they are in fact QLA2310F Expected Results: Correct display of hardware Additional info: The other unknown devices are of Class Host bridge, we may want to put that info into the RHN pages as well as Host bridge is more descriptive than unknown device.
Created attachment 84884 [details] lspci file from sysreport
whats /etc/sysconfig/hwconf look like? thats where up2date/rhn_register gets it's hardware info from. If it's out of date, sounds more like a kudzu issue (kudzu generates that). Also, was this system updated? It's possible the system registered at some point past with less meaningful pci mappins.
Ping. up2date takes the information from kudzu. Check Adrian's post.
pong: it's a customer's machine. As it has not checked into RHN since 2002-12-13 03:41:56 EST getting therequired info from there seems unlikely. I'll refile this if I can reproduce on a system I have control over. Close for now.
