how do i find what hardware i have??
 

how do i find a list of what hardware i have on my computer using Fedora 11
like using Device Manager in windows

thanks for your help everyone

Open a terminal and do

/sbin/lspci

Look at "Find Hardware Specs (Details) on your Computer" on http://embraceubuntu.com/2007/02/18/...your-computer/. You can create and keep an html page using lshw

you can also use cat /proc e.g
/proc/cpuinfo to see the processor info of your system
/proc/meminfo for RAM info
/proc/partitions for hard disk info

i have installed this utilitiy in Fedora 9 and using it without problem for Listing my Hardwares.

If you want to show the specs in a GUI like in windows, install lshw-gui:

Then you may run it from the console or menu.

Alternatively, there is "hwbrowser"

Cheers!

thanks every one
i used lshw-gui it works great
