How do I get rid of unwanted lines without grep -v in BASH

pobrika · 06-09-2009, 05:19 PM

Hi,

I would like to know how I can get the ouput from the following dmidecode command in example 1 to look like example 2 without having to grep -v all the unwanted lines.
Is there a way in awk or sed?

Example 1

Code:

Maybe something like

Code:

dmidecode | awk '/Socket Designation|Version|Status/' | sed '0~3G'

ArfaSmif · 06-09-2009, 06:06 PM

man dmidecode

and check out all of the options

this may get other "Status" or Version belonging to other sections as well.

This one?

Code:

dmidecode | awk '/Socket Designation:|Version:|Status:/' | sed '0~3G'

well, according to what OP is desiring, getting the exact "Version:" and "Status:" from the "processor information" block should be the way to go. therefore a little more coding to find where the "processor information" block is, then get the relevant "Version" and "Status" . here's one extract from my end under Bios information

Code:

BIOS Information
        Vendor: Lenovo
        Version: v1.11
        Release Date: 10/14/06
        Address: 0xE7C40
        Runtime Size: 99264 bytes
        ROM Size: 1024 kB
        Characteristics:

as you can see, "Version:" also appears..

You're right (as always) but the OP can always handle it using the -t option of dmidecode to extract just the relevant information (dmidecode -t processor).

curious

egrep '^[[:space:]]*(Socket|Version:|Status: )'
