Readhat has hardware-browser, what does debian have?


Title sums it up but I want to see details on my hardware as you might to in Windows. I've tried searching google and only seem to come up with the Redhat hardware-browser answer.
Can anyone tell me if debian has a gnome gui program to get info on my hardware?

And will also ask, how does one export favorites from Epiphany? I want to export them to disk so I've got them saved in case my machine ever dies on me.

hal-device-manager is one that provides such a functionality
Code:
apt-get install hal-device-manager

Ephiphany keeps its bookmarks in the file ~/.gnome2/epiphany/bookmarks.rdf

Also, if you use KDE, it will have a util called 'Info Center' in the System section of the KDE menu. It'll give you all sorts of info about your hardware, among other things.

There's also a package called "hardinfo", which installs a GUI utility that gives rudimentary hardware info and doesn't require Gnome or KDE libs. It doesn't show PCMCIA devices, though.
