Why I see different output from yours?

swlist -l bundle | grep -i patch

Hanry,

HP has changed the names of the bundles over the years. Current bundles, I think, are now named GOLDsomething. They used to be called HWE, for hardware enablement, QPK for quality pack, and the like.

That's why Pete's response is better than mine - the string patch is likely to remain - the titles probably won't.

Cheers,
