Thanks for checking. I finally did:

$ hwinfo > hwinfo.txt

and the text file is readable but looks like it's doing a 195Kb debug
dump. Sample:

============ start debug info ============
libhd version 13.35u (ia32)
using /var/lib/hardware
kernel version is 2.6
----- /proc/cmdline -----
  root=UUID=3c77b883-abee-42b7-912d-135f782d133f ro quiet splash

shm: attached segment 557071 at 0xb7bb9000
>> hal.1: read hal data
  hal: connected to: :1.23
----- hal device list -----

Then it goes on for the devices, then:
----- /proc/nvram end -----
>> floppy.2: nvram info
>> bios.1: cmdline
>> bios.1.1: apm
>> bios.2: ram
  bios: 0 disks
>> bios.2: rom
>> bios.3: smp
----- BIOS data 0x00400 - 0x004ff -----
  400  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
etc.

then

>> misc.9: kernel log
----- kernel log -----
  <6>[   23.952000] Yenta TI: socket 0000:00:02.0, mfunc 0x00001000,
devctl 0x66
  <6>[   24.064000] pci_hotplug: PCI Hot Plug PCI Core version: 0.5
etc.

then

---------- PCI raw data ----------
bus 00, slot 00, func 0, vend:dev:s_vend:s_dev:rev 8086:7190:0000:0000:03
class 06, sub_class 00 prog_if 00, hdr 0, flags <>, irq 0
etc.

then

>> input.2: input
----- /proc/bus/input/devices -----
  I: Bus=0017 Vendor=0001 Product=0001 Version=0100
etc.

then at line 6554 the debug info ends and it looks like the normal
hwinfo data:

01: None 00.0: 0102 Floppy disk controller
  [Created at floppy.112]
  Unique ID: rdCR.3wRL2_g4d2B
  Hardware Class: storage
  Model: "Floppy disk controller"

etc.

So I'm wondering if some type of debug flag got turned on in the
transition from Feisty to Gutsy. And now I suspect that the buffer for
the terminal window fills up & resorts to the 34: ISA(P?P) 00.0: 0000
U???????°??? ?????? junk that I am seeing.
