Comment 3 for bug 1030836

Yes, it seems to work correctly, despite the error messages, though I'm primarily using collectl to feed disk I/O metrics into Ganglia. I brought up the issue as primarily "fit and finish".

However, I did not look into what dmidecode is used for, so I don't know whether some part of the functionality is impacted. There may be information obtained from it that could be obtained from elsewhere on ARM/non-DMI systems.
