Hi

In this post you can see some useful command to find and show hardware information on Linux.

Default commands

ALL devices

dmesg

dmesg will show you the kernel messages which can show you all the devices the kernel has found (hard disks,cdroms,etc)

CPU

# cat /proc/cpuinfo

Memory

# cat /proc/meminfo
$ free

PCI (including usb bridges,agp cards etc)

$ lspci

USB devices (mice,etc)

$ lsusb

Hard drives

# fdisk -l
$ df -h

Additional Command

lshw

lshw is a Linux command which provides details of all the hardware in your PC. The details provided by the lshw command run the gamut of processors, memory, slots, onboard sound, video chipset and more.

Install lshw

Arch:

# pacman -S lshw

Debain, Ubuntu or any of its derivatives:

$ sudo aptitude install lshw

Redhat, fedora, CentOS:

# yum install lshw

Gentoo:

# emerge lshw

Run lshw

# lshw
# lshw -short

To get the output in HTML, you use the -html option as follows:

# lshw -html > hardware-info.html

• See lshw command – List hardware information in Linux

dmidecode

dmidecode command reads the system DMI table to display hardware and BIOS information of the server. Apart from getting current configuration of the system, you can also get information about maximum supported configuration of the system using dmidecode. For example, dmidecode gives both the current RAM on the system and the maximum RAM supported by the system.
dmidecode is installed by default on many linux distribution like debain, ubuntu and fedora.

Introduction
Using online tools has many advantages. One of the most important of them is the information is accessible from anywhere and at any time.
One need that was occurred after using this tools is Synchronizing information with other applications and devices. such as Synchronizing contacts between Mobile, Web and PC.

* The following guide is tested on Kubuntu 9.10 with KDE 4.3.3 environment.

Synchronizing Google Tools with Kontact
Step 1
Installing akonadi-kde-resource-googledata package. The package is available in Ubuntu 9.10 and Debian repositories.

P.S.

One of the useful features when you are using email clients, is “adding attachment(s)” item in right click menu.

— Send files to email

This feature does not exist in default KDE 4.x version but adding this item is really piece of cake:

First, go to the service directory:

cd ~/.kde/share/kde4/services

Create file `email.desktop`:

touch email.desktop

Add below configuration commands.

for KMail

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Service
Icon=dolphin
ServiceTypes=KonqPopupMenu/Plugin,all/allfiles

Actions=Send_to_KMail
X-KDE-menu=Email
X-KDE-Priority=TopLevel

[Desktop Action Send_to_KMail]
Name=Send file(s) with KMail
Exec=kmail --attach %U
Icon=kmail

for Thunderbird

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Service
Icon=dolphin
ServiceTypes=KonqPopupMenu/Plugin,all/allfiles

Actions=Send_to_Thunderbird
X-KDE-menu=Email
X-KDE-Priority=TopLevel
Encoding=UTF-8
ServiceTypes=all/all

[Desktop Action Send_to_Thunderbird]
Name=Send file(s) with Thunderbird
Exec=thunderbird -P guest -compose "attachment=file://%U"
Icon=thunderbird

Now save the file and reopen the Dolphin file manager.
done!

Good luck

Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala Release Party will be held in Tehran, Iran soon:

— Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala Release Party

Date: Thursday, Nov 12, 2009 from 9 to 14
Location: Forum Conference martyr Ghandi, Opposite St. Hoveyze, above the intersection martyr Ghoddosi (Castle), Shariati St. – Tehran, Iran

P.S.
Above is designed by Sedigheh Ahmadi.

I hope to see you in Party

It’s simple. Just 4 steps:

1. Save a copy of the file as ODS (OpenOffice.org Spreadsheet).
2. Change the filetype of the copy to ZIP (for example rename File.xls to File.zip).
3. Open the ZIP.
4. In the directory called Pictures will be the images, just as in the original.

Identi.ca is an open source social networking and micro-blogging service.
I like Ideni.ca. It’s good service.

I use CLI (command line) everyday. I like to dented from it. It’s simple.
Just install cURL:

$ sudo apt-get install curl

And type:

$ curl -u username:password -d status="message" http://identi.ca/api/statuses/update.xml

You will receive a response containing the XML coding for your post which acts as a confirmation that your post was submitted.

Also you can create a shell file for this
Open a new text document and add the following, save it as identica.sh (or anything ending in sh):

#!/bin/bash
curl -u username:password -d status=″$1" http://identi.ca/api/statuses/update.xml

Make sure you change the chmod to 777 using the following command.

$ chmod 777 /path/to/file/

When you located the file (or add a bash prompt) it makes it simplier to identi.ca the rules. For example you can type the following to command to link to the file.

$ ./path/to/idetica.sh "Message"

If you want to get file’s footer lines, you can use:
$ tail FILE

If you want to print some line that they not in first part or last part of file, you can use:
$ more +num10 FILE | head -n20

The above command print from line 10 to 30 (20 lines) of FILE

I wish You:

Marry Christmas & Happy New year.
