Remotely determine RAM type as in SDRAM or DDR from Linux? is this possible?

if it were possible, it would probably be in /proc/meminfo .

but, it's not there.

look around the /proc folder, it might be in cpuinfo as well.

nobody on #linuxhelp on irc.freenode.net knew either.

I don't know of any OS that tells you, because it doesn't change any driver/software-level activity. That's barely even a concern at the BIOS level.

Okay thanks for the help. Phonenix BIOS does tell me, but remotely it's a bit hard to see, unless you run some advance console server.
