HardInfo shows no storage infomation

Post by d-pupp »

@dimkr
Just an fyi HardInfo shows info for everything except my Hard drive. It is a old spinning platter type and I read somewhere HardInfo should show info on this type of drive. However the storage sections are empty.

Here is the info on my hard disk

Code: Select all

lsblk -S
NAME HCTL       TYPE VENDOR   MODEL                      REV SERIAL                    TRAN

@dimkr Installing udisk2 worked. Hardinfo now shows storage info.
fyi install from the command line failed with unable to find package. However Synaptic found it no problem.
112 package held back
12 packages installed
1026 kb installed

Thanks
