Are commands missing
I am running Slackware 13.37 since March '11.
I seem to have at least these 2 commands missing tho they are in the man page:
lspci
dmidecode
I am thinking I had lspci under 12.xx but perhaps I created a workaround.
Are these really missing and if so why are they in the man pages?

They are probably in an sbin directory, accessible when you are running as root.

Thank You BIG time, macemoneta. Totally did not click that it might be root specific.
