Description
Hello,
Before opening an issue on memtest issue tracker,
I would like to know if the DDR3 SPD reading is correct because with memtest 7.20 (64bit build),
the main screen is fully empty, instead of showing:
Memory SPD Information
----
- Slot 0 : RAM SIZE / SPEED / PART NUMBER
- Slot 1 : RAM SIZE / SPEED / PART NUMBER
Also, no mention of the RAM CAS just above. It is empty.
Otherwise the test is running correctly.
I'm having the same issue with a t400, r400 & t500 and memtest 7.20 (and earlier)
All my lenovo are running coreboot 24.12 and have CONFIG_DUMP_SMBIOS_TYPE17=y
Otherwise dmidecode have no issue reporting those values, see below.
Any advice appreciated. Thanks.
$ dmidecode -t 17
# dmidecode 3.6
Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs.
SMBIOS 3.0 present.
