Is it possible to report the hardware detected?
Hi all
New to linux.
Is there a way to produce a report of the hardware that knoppix has detected? I have used the Kinfo Center program but there doesnt seem to be a way of exporting this info to a text file.
Many thanks

here you have a a script to give you a extremly verbose description on what is on your computer, some things will be shown several times, as to what is detected and what works... that requires some knowledge, but this should give most info you likely need.
Code:
#hardwarescript.sh
#/bin/sh
true ; ( set -x
sudo su
lspci -vv
lsusb -vv
lsmod
ifconfig
iwconfig
cat /etc/fstab
fdisk -l
mount
dmesg
) >& result.txt
copy the text to a textfile called hardwarescript.sh save it in /home/knoppix and make it executable.
to make it executable you open a console, terminal... (it is the icon like a computerscreen) and issue the comand
chmod +x /home/knoppix/hardwarescript.sh

see if you have l shw or apt-get it
lshw > hardware.txt the lspci -vv is nice

Hi rrk
I've tried to apt-get install lshw from knoppix but it can't find it to install. I have found the source on the programmers website. Is this likely to compile and run when I boot knoppix from CD?
Thanks

lshw should be in testing
apt-get -t testing install lshw

Hi
I had to do an apt-get update before the command you gave me would work. It took quite a while to update. Any ideas? I thought I was using the latest knoppix. v4.0.2.
Thanks again
AlanC
