It is always a good practice to know the hardware components of your Linux system is running on, this helps you to deal with compatibility issues when it comes to installing packages, drivers on your system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10 Commands to Check Hardware and System Information in Linux<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore in this tips and tricks<\/a>, we shall look at some useful commands that can help you to extract information about your Linux system and hardware components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. How to View Linux System Information<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To know only system name, you can use uname<\/strong> command without any switch will print system information or uname -s<\/strong> command will print the kernel name of your system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

tecmint@tecmint ~ $<\/strong> uname<\/strong>\n\nLinux<\/strong>\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
To view your network hostname, use \u2018-n\u2019<\/strong> switch with uname command as shown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
tecmint@tecmint ~ $<\/strong> uname -n<\/strong>\n\ntecmint.com<\/strong>\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
To get information about kernel-version, use \u2018-v\u2019<\/strong> switch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
tecmint@tecmint ~ $<\/strong> uname -v<\/strong>\n\n#64-Ubuntu SMP Mon Sep 22 21:28:38 UTC 2014<\/strong>\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
To get the information about your kernel release, use \u2018-r\u2019<\/strong> switch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
tecmint@tecmint ~ $<\/strong> uname -r<\/strong>\n\n3.13.0-37-generic<\/strong>\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
To print your machine hardware name, use \u2018-m\u2019<\/strong> switch:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
tecmint@tecmint ~ $<\/strong> uname -m<\/strong>\n\nx86_64<\/strong>\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
All this information can be printed at once by running \u2018uname -a\u2019<\/strong> command as shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
tecmint@tecmint ~ $<\/strong> uname -a<\/strong>\n\nLinux tecmint.com 3.13.0-37-generic #64-Ubuntu SMP Mon Sep 22 21:28:38 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU\/Linux<\/strong>\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
2. How to View Linux System Hardware Information<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Here you can use the lshw tool<\/strong> to gather vast information about your hardware components such as cpu<\/strong>, disks<\/strong>, memory<\/strong>, usb controllers<\/strong> etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
lshw<\/strong> is a relatively small tool and there are few options that you can use with it while extracting information. The information provided by lshw<\/strong> gathered form different \/proc<\/strong> files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Note<\/strong>: Do remember that the lshw<\/strong> command executed by superuser (root<\/strong>) or sudo<\/strong> user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. How to Print Information about SATA Devices<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
You can find some information about sata devices on your system as follows using the hdparm<\/strong> utility. In the example below, I used the block device \/dev\/sda1<\/strong> which the harddisk on my system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
tecmint@tecmint ~ $<\/strong> sudo hdparm \/dev\/sda1<\/strong>\n\n\/dev\/sda1:\n multcount     =  0 (off)\n IO_support    =  1 (32-bit)\n readonly      =  0 (off)\n readahead     = 256 (on)\n geometry      = 56065\/255\/63, sectors = 2048000, start = 2048\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
To print information about device geometry interms of cylinders, heads, sectors, size and the starting offset of the device, use the -g<\/strong> option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
tecmint@tecmint ~ $<\/strong> sudo hdparm -g \/dev\/sda1<\/strong>\n\n\/dev\/sda1:\n geometry      = 56065\/255\/63, sectors = 2048000, start = 2048\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
9. How to Print Linux File System Information<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
To gather information about file system partitions, you can use fdisk<\/strong> command. Although the main functionality of fdisk<\/strong> command is to modify file system partitions, it can also be used to view information about the different partitions on your file system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can print partition information as follows. Remember to run the command as a superuser or else you may not see any output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
