Adding a new com32 module to handle cpu information

2006-09-05T20:53:38+00:00

 From : Erwan Velu 
This patch a new com32 module to handle cpu information.
A new "cpu" structure can be filled by calling "detect_cpu(&cpu)".

It provides :
- Vendor name as string
- Model as string
- Vendor as integer
- Model as integer
- Family as integer
- Stepping as Integer
- Flags as boolean
- SMP as boolean

Note that SMP is just a manner to know if the bios annonce an MPTABLE.
This code can't detect each processor.

I've been adding a demo program called cpuidtest to show how it works.

if (cpu.flags.lm == true) printf("This system is x86_64 compatible\n");
This example shows how to test if a system is X86_64 compatible.
I hope it's simple enough ;)

This code is mainly taken from the Linux Kernel.
Greetings for all the guys who wrote it.

Testing and feedback are welcome.

Lots of fixes to make the graphical menu actually work.

Beginnings of a color theme manager; unify vesamenu and ansimenu

More work on actual VESA console and menu. Shadowing still doesn't work

2006-08-31T22:48:26+00:00

quite right, however.

Remove more CVS-era $Id$ tags.

Adding a com32 module to handle DMI

2006-08-15T05:25:26+00:00

 From : Erwan Velu 

This patch add a new com32 module named dmi.
It can parse DMI Hanldes number 0,1,2,3,4.
Using a very simple API, you can read the values of the following "Handles"
- BIOS
- CHASSIS
- SYSTEM
- BASE_BOARD
- PROCESSOR

It's possible and easy to extend to many other Handles.

A sample code program called dmitest shows how you can use and display
this structures.

The codes is mainly taken from the Linux Kernel and the smartmontool
projects.
Both are GPL, my code too.

Testing and feedback are welcomed.
