Package: hardinfo
Version: 0.4.2.3-1
Severity: minor


For example:

    Model CD-RW 52x24
    ...
    Driver Generic mmc CD-RW
    ...
    Speeds
    Maximum read speed  9173kBs/s (CD 52x, DVD 6x)

Perhaps that's just a translation of CD throughput speeds (150kB/s=CD 1x) to DVD
speeds (1350kB/s=DVD 1x), but it looks as much as if to imply that a CDRW drive
could somehow read DVD media.  

And that arithmetic is a bit fuzzy:

    CD  52x =  150kB x 52 = 7800kB/s < DVD 6x
    DVD  6x = 1350kB x  6 = 8100kB/s = CD 54x


Suggested remedy:  show DVD speeds only for DVD drives, or make it optional for
those who prefer it.

Hope this helps...

It is believed that this bug has been fixed with the current hardinfo(2) 2.1.2-1
package upload. Closing the bug report accordingly.
