[ltp] recognising a thinkpad

[Helmut Hullen]

Hallo, Richard,

Du (rn214) meintest am 16.07.08:

>> how can I let recognise the system if it runs on a thinkpad (here:
>> mostly T2x, 1 T40)?

        lspci -vvv | grep Subsystem | grep -iq Thinkpad

may do the same job - I'll try them both.
Thank you!

Viele Gruesse!
