Hi, I would like to get the id of the bios to implement some kind of security check for my app on linux. On platforms other than a pc, I can access the cpu id, or the id of the internet card. I can't do that on linux, because not everyone has a network card installed and not all pc cpus have ids. So I would like to access the bios id, the video card id or the hard disk id.
The hard disk id with the ioctl call is impossible, because I have to be root to access /dev/hda for example. Any suggestions or ideas ? Thank you :) Martin Tapp martin@cerca.umontreal.ca
