I do not have a record of the hotlink that I used to get Karsten's script,
but I'm pretty sure it was, as above, twiki.iwethey.org. This site is, indeed,
not available now. (I just tried.) Karsten has been posting to this list
recently. Maybe he will notice this thread and update us on what is happening.
In the mean time, I've included what I got from his site before it went down.
I warn all of you, especially the innocent newbies:
DO NOT RUN THIS SCRIPT UNLESS YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND EVERY LINE OF CODE!!!!
I am not sending it over a secure link. I have run it. It needs minor update
to conform with the latest Debian policy, which appears to place lspci in /bin
Otherwise, I see nothing wrong with it, BUT I AM NOT AN EXPERT.
