* It did not produce BIOS and Motherboard info for me
* For some reason the columns aren't showing correctly in the Software Installed Information section of the text file. It looks fine when I run dpkg --list in the terminal though.
The script is ment to be the part of OS in /usr/scripts
You don't want to have your report in that location.

Strange, xdg-open should open it in a text editor.

Thank you. Fixed.

Did you start the script in a terminal?
gksudo -k /path/to/the/script

That's how the script works. The same thing is with the current one. Find it in the Whisker menu. It's named 'Create System Report'.
