Oh wow. Chassis-type should be "Laptop", not "Other". That's totally
unexpected.

Could you please send the full output from "dmidecode" to me privately
so that I can try to find some other laptop designator? You can also
send the dmidecode output to the list, but it may contain serial numbers
or other identifying information. Thank you.

Regards,
Carl-Daniel
