"Device manager?"


Hi Everyone,

I am new to Ubuntu. After many attempts I have finally managed to load Ubuntu. I am preparing to get on the net with my new OS. Where is the equivalent of "device manager" located? I hope this question doesn't sound too lame but I still feel rather lost out here. All the best, David

Hi David A. Samuel, Welcome to lq. Try System > Device manager. Looks like this.
Good luck. ;-)
