@Sebastien Bacher of course, thanks for your response. My default locale is:
$ echo $LANG en_GB.UTF-8 And here's the output of lshw with C locale: $ LANG=C sudo lshw -c memory [... info about CPU cache and firmware removed ...] *-memory description: System Memory physical id: c slot: System board or motherboard size: 12GiB *-bank:0 description: SODIMM DDR3 Synchronous 1600 MHz (0,6 ns) product: ACR16D3LS1KNG/8G vendor: Kingston physical id: 0 serial: 16392411 slot: ChannelA-DIMM0 size: 8GiB width: 64 bits clock: 1600MHz (0.6ns) *-bank:1 description: [empty] physical id: 1 slot: ChannelA-DIMM1 *-bank:2 description: SODIMM DDR3 Synchronous 1600 MHz (0,6 ns) product: HMT451S6BFR8A-PB vendor: SK Hynix physical id: 2 serial: 37441113 slot: ChannelB-DIMM0 size: 4GiB width: 64 bits clock: 1600MHz (0.6ns) *-bank:3 description: [empty] physical id: 3 slot: ChannelB-DIMM1 *-memory UNCLAIMED description: Memory controller product: Intel Corporation vendor: Intel Corporation physical id: 1f.2 bus info: pci@0000:00:1f.2 version: 21 width: 32 bits clock: 33MHz (30.3ns) capabilities: bus_master configuration: latency=0 resources: memory:a4224000-a4227fff This time the output is correct. You should add a check and fall back to the untranslated C locale output instead of the generic Launchpad translation string. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1597886 Title: Strange Launchpad data appears on empty memory banks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lshw/+bug/1597886/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
