Hi! Heiko thought this project could be interesting to you: Project name: libhardware and scanmodule Author: AGX (www.badpenguin.org) <http://freshmeat.net/~agx/> About: libhardware is a very small static library used in many utilities that are part of Antonio Gallo's (AGX) GNU/Linux distribution, "Bad Penguin". It provides functions to access information about your system hardware, to detect the hardware, and to handle kernel modules automatically. It is able to enumerate all PCI devices, enumerate all EIDE disks and CDROMs, enumerate all SCSI disks and CDROMs, enumerate all EIDE/SCSI disk partitions, and check if a detected device is supported in the Linux kernel using a custom PCI database. The included shell scripts 'probedisk' and 'probepart' detect disks, CDROMs, and partitions. The included 'scanmodule' utility allows you to detect and load kernel module automatically.

Especially the part with disk and partition detection. Sincerely, freshmeat.net |
