I'm impressed by OpenIndiana installing and running fine on this Dell Precision.
However the "ddu" (device detection utility) is not reporting some info.
The underlying problem seems to be :
# /usr/ddu/bin/i386/dmi_info -C
error open smbios
Usage: dmi_info [BCDMmPS]
-B: print BIOS information
-C: print Processor number and core number
-D: print PCI Controllers information
-M: print Motherboard information
-m: print memory subsystem information
-P: print Processor informationIn the UEFI Shell, the SmbiosView command
can retrieve and display the SMBIOS data
-S: print System information
-h: for help
So basically this tool (used to 'probe') seems not be working for me.
I'm no expert in this, but I guess this is related to UEFI and,
the tool must be updated to access this DMI info from UEFI
