sorry but i'm a noob in hardware questions, all the things i can tell you is that I have this pchttp://www.hackerscomputer.com/art/id15255/acer/acer-aspire-5740g-624g64mn-ci7620m-640gb-2x2gb-156in-dvd-dl-w7hp-it.html (mb Mobile Intel HM55 Express).
thank you, that was what i was looking for. at first i presumed you were running flashrom on a desktop machine.
flashrom tries to detect this (with dmidecode) but failed, hence my confusion. the reason it checks that at all is that running flashrom on laptops can be dangerous (e.g. instant shutdowns). it was not in your case but please refrain from running it on other laptops.
ok lol
thanks for the explanation btw I think that with battery on it and connected to AC you can use a laptop safely (with battery you avoid instant shutdowns)
