Hi !

I've got a cron-job to collect hardware-infos of all machines(SL3/SL4) ...

e.g.
 
# rpm -qif /usr/sbin/lshw
Name        : lshw                         Relocations: (not 
relocatable)
Version     : 2.10                              Vendor: Dag Apt

Summary     : Hardware lister
Description :
lshw is a small tool to provide detailed informaton on the hardware
configuration of the machine. It can report exact memory configuration,
firmware version, mainboard configuration, CPU version and speed, cache
configuration, bus speed, etc. on DMI-capable x86 systems and on some
PowerPC machines (PowerMac G4 is known to work).


But unfortunately on some machines the command "lshw" 
is hanging while it's becomes to usb or scsi ....

I can disable the test for usb & scsi and then it's run without a 
problem, but it make no sense anymore for me ...

Has got anybody the same Problem or a solution ?

Cheers,

       Martin
