Hey,
Attached are two patches against hal and hal-info that deprecate the
smbios.* keys and replace them with:
smbios.system.manufacturer -> system.hardware.manufacturer
smbios.system.product -> system.hardware.product
smbios.system.version -> system.hardware.version
smbios.system.serial -> system.hardware.serial
smbios.system.uuid -> system.hardware.uuid
smbios.bios.vendor -> system.firmware.vendor
smbios.bios.version -> system.firmware.version
smbios.bios.release_date -> system.firmware.release_date
smbios.chassis.manufacturer -> system.chassis.manufacturer
smbios.chassis.type -> system.chassis.type
This means stuff like OLPC and N800 doesn't have to use the
smbios.bios.* prefix for system firmware and is therefore more abstract.
This is important to get in before 0.5.9 as hal-info spec can't change
after it's formally released.
The old keys are copied from the new names, so everything should work as
it used to.
Comments please,
Richard.
