| Post subject: | system hardware specs |
I would like to generate a list of my hardware specifications to assist with trouble shooting. I assume this can be done with a simple command in the command line, however not being Linux Boffin I don't even know where to start. Any help much appreciated. |

The one way I know of is using the lspci command, now I will be honest and don't know the exact usage of this command so a little research may be needed. What this command does is list the hardware and identifiers. This should do what you need, but please only list the hardware that is related to your problem. Good luck. |

A generalization (motherboard/video/network make/model), or something more specific? As Girkers mentioned lspci can help, but it's pretty specific and can be verbose. dmesg can give some hardware specifics, but takes some effort to wade through it as it can be very verbose as well.
Any help much appreciated. I am not aware of any Linux utilities that would give you more general specs... |

I have tried lspci, which is a good start, but it looks like I am going to have to wade through dmesg. Cheers. |
