OK just figured out that the plugin hwinfo and the 3dna plugin are the samething. But, I've been trying to get hwinfo to work like the script that the 3dna guy did. I like the way it checks the system resources and displays them on the installer. Has anyone been able to get this to work?
that's something you'll have to do yourself, using e.g. nsDialogs; it's not part of the plugin, which only gives you the numbers.
Ok, I'll give it a try. I figured there was a working plugin for this since alot of software checks to make sure your system is sufficient before it installs. I will see if I can get this working.
well the plugin gives you what you need.. the machine's specs (CPU speed, ram amount, that sort of thing).
Given -that-, you can use IntCmp or LogicLib to compare that value to your minimum / recommended requirements.
With the results of -that-, you can adjust your custom page to tell the user their machine might be too slow, set red background colors on elements, etc.
