Hi all,
I am wondering if there is any sane way to get a unique ID for a system.
That means both hardware- and Xen-based.
Things I tried include, but are not limited to:

ls -l

Hello,
We have a Echo Layla 3G and couldn't make it work.
After alsa, we also installed firmware modules. However, it didn't work.
