Is there any program that shows all hardware?

Question

Is there any program that shows all hardware (e.g. Graphic card NVIDIA GeForce 9600GT, Network card, and so on) on your computer?

Answer 1

There are a couple of command line programs that give you this kind of information, you could try lshw and lspci.
For a GUI that nicely displays information from these and other sources, try hardinfo .

It will appear in the applications menu under System > System Profiler and Benchmarks.
As the name suggests, it also offers some benchmarks ;)

Answer 2

Sounds like you're looking for lspci. It's not all hardware; but it is the ones you listed and it's usually the one I want.

(lshw also exists, although I'm not sure if it's installed by default. It's usually more info than I want)

Answer 3

The old school method that I use is to type dmesg at the prompt. It will show you the last startup log of the Linux system.

Answer 4

Find Hardware Specs (Details) on your Computer

I stumbled upon the nifty “lshw” tool today. lshw lists your hardware. Try it now:

sudo lshw

You can get specific details by using the -C flag:

sudo lshw -C disk

will list all you hard disks.

It can create a html page with your hardware details if you do:

sudo lshw -html > your-file-name.html
