How to get my pc's information?
Hi, I'm thinking of installing Debian and in the manual it says that I should know the following information
Code:
Hardware Information Needed for an Install

| | * Their order on the system. |
|Hard | * Whether IDE or SCSI (most computers are IDE). |
|Drives | * Available free space. |
| | * Partitions. |
| | * Partitions where other operating systems are |
| | installed. |
|--------+----------------------------------------------------------|
| | * Model and manufacturer. |
| | * Resolutions supported. |
|Monitor | * Horizontal refresh rate. |
| | * Vertical refresh rate. |
| | * Color depth (number of colors) supported. |
| | * Screen size. |

I looked in dmesg but I couldn't find information about my monitor...
here is my dmesg
