The software on your system's liable to be different from mine, so I'm not sure what you have at your disposal. My preferred tool for listing hardware is called
lshw --- it may or may not be installed on your machine. Log in as root and try:
If that doesn't work then
lshw is probably not installed on your machine. Of course you can simply install it if you wish, but it's possible that your distribution already includes a tool similar to
lshw --- I can't say. Maybe someone else can shed light on this...
...Anyway, you can always find information about your CPU & memory from
/proc:
Code:
cat /proc/cpuinfo /proc/meminfo
For information about your PCI devices, issue the command
...And if you want even more (and can wait an age for the benchmarking to complete), you could try
Code:
hardinfo -f html > hardwareinfo.html
(here the output is in HTML and is redirected to a file which can be viewed in a web browser).
Also, you can have a look at what the kernel spits out during the boot process:
Again, though, there's a lot to sift through, so you may want to redirect it to a file or pipe it to a paging program and peruse it in order to pick out the interesting bits, e.g.
Anyway, I hope this helps. Good luck!
