Linuxinfo - System info in bug reports made easier

I wanted to share a small project that a couple buddies of mine and I are working on. Introducing Linuxinfo, an information gathering script indended to make reporting bugs  (and reading bug reports) easier.

Straight from the website:
"LinuxInfo is a modular script to collect generic system information to aid troubleshooting and the filing of bug reports. It is designed to be easy to use, and it is packaged using "Makeself" to provide a single runnable script that generates a report detailing the system on which it is run.
It is designed for users that wish to create more sensible bug reports as well as for developers that would like to have a simple customized tool for their users."

You can download a 'prebuilt' version of the script from the site listed above, or you can simply clone the git repository and run run.sh, like so:

~/builds/linuxinfo $ ./run.sh
LinuxInfo v1.0.2-nl - (c) 2013, NoccyLabs.info
Licensed under GNU GPL version 3

Analzing system...
  - Running module 00-header: Ok
  - Running module 05-kernel: Ok
  - Running module 06-cpu: Ok
  - Running module 07-memory: Ok
  - Running module 10a-distro-ubuntu: Skip
  - Running module 10z-distro-unknown: Ok
  - Running module 20-display-xrandr: Ok
  - Running module 21-display-glxinfo: Skip

  - Running module 31-audio-alsa: Ok
  - Running module 50-lsof: Ok
linuxinfo.txt has been created.

1) ix.io

We're currently working on more modules, and we'd love some feedback on what kinds of modules people would like to see. The list of publishers (ix.io, sprunge.us, local save) is also modular and I'd be interested in feedback regarding any we've missed there as well. What do you guys think? Thanks smile
