The Workspace Info Panel is empty

Hi Sergii,

This is a minor issue:
The Workspace Info Panel is empty.

I think it could be usefull to have these infos to get a full context when reporting an issue.

• Context:

12.8
Linux NEXTPI 6.6.51+rpt-rpi-v8 #1 SMP PREEMPT Debian 1:6.6.51-1+rpt3 (2024-10-08) aarch64 GNU/Linux

Workspace Info panel mostly uses standard GNUstep routines. Should work without a problem.
Do you have any messages in console on first open of panel?

@pcardona34 is it still actual?

[pcardona34]

Yes, it is actual: tested under Debian 12, aarch64 (last install today).
Nothing in the Console Log.

The same under Ultramarine (Fedora like) so it seems a specific issues of the Raspberries (maybe a device-tree trap) or of the arm kernel. I will investigate.

I've mananged to reproduce this with VM on MacBook Air M2. Now I can inspect this issue.

Mentioned change should fill Info Panel with most of the information except "Processor" field on ARM. Unfortunately I don't know how to get CPU information. Even lscpu utillity doesn't show this. Maybe this may change in the future when Linux will enhance.

In the case of my pi400, lscpu is verbose...

Well done. Maybe later we could get the CPU info on arm machines.
