Check Ubuntu System

Hi everyone,

I was wondering how you're supposed to find out the hardware... like your sound card, graphics card, video card, etc. I'm trying to do some MIDI stuff, but I need to find out the sound card first.

You could use the System Information utility from the System -> Administration menu (I think) or from a terminal run
lspciThis will show you the PCI devices attached to the system. I think it will include onboard devices such as sound cards and NICs as well.

Cheers!

lspci and lsusb will tell you most of what you need to know.

There is also a lshw command.
