What's your dmidecode version? I'm using 2.7. The latest one is at
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/dmidecode/dmidecode-2.8.tar.gz.

You can also extract the information from a simple "dmidecode" output.
The most important bits are shown by
# dmidecode | egrep -iA4 'system info|embedded cont'
