thanks for your reply but I've tried that, but it will only show the IDE, USB and stuffs.

I am trying to find out what's the brand of the motherboard.

Check if you have "hwinfo". hwinfo --bios might contain that information. If not try the first section output by "lshal".

Code:
hwinfo --bios | grep Manufacturer

    Manufacturer: "HP Pavilion 061"
    Manufacturer: "ASUSTek Computer INC."
    Manufacturer: "AMD"
