Hardware version ALIX.1D vs ALIX.3D

Hi there,

my Meteohub system info says: Linux Kernel: 2.6.24 997 BogoMIPS, 248 MB RAM, ALIX.1D (500 MHz)
But as I recognize the mechanical dimensions and its case it looks rather than an ALIX.3D...

How can I verify what hardware I run on really? Where gets Meteohub the system info from?
Thanks a lot in advance

Meteohub cant distinguish between these two boxes. It can tell a 3D2 from a 1D, but not a 3D3 from a 1D.
If anyone having an Idea how to find out, I would be happy to make use of it in next update.

As a work-around, couldn't you setup a txt-file with version number in it?
If the file exists, you read it, if not, you take the standard response of the unit :?

Just a wild guess, this is from my 1D:

Code: Select all

meteohub:/# cat /proc/devices
Character devices:
  1 mem
  4 /dev/vc/0
  4 tty
  4 ttyS
  5 /dev/tty
  5 /dev/console
  5 /dev/ptmx
  7 vcs
 10 misc
 13 input
 14 sound
 29 fb
116 alsa
128 ptm
136 pts
180 usb
188 ttyUSB
189 usb_device
252 rtc
253 cs5535_gpio
254 usb_endpoint

Block devices:
  1 ramdisk
  3 ide0
  7 loop
254 device-mapper
Also, maybe there are additional modules loaded because the HW is slightly different:

Code: Select all

So, one might run the same commands on a 3D3 and look for differences.

Can anybody espy any 3D3- or 1D-specific headword?

New approach: Would there be a way to test the amount and function of LED's :?:

and I found something here: They somehow detect ALIX.2 and ALIX.3 systems:

Is any crack out there knowing to deal with this code?
