Signature Info

[physic.dude]

I would like to put ALL of my computer specs into my signature so I don't need to include the info when people ask me in a post.

what should I include?
Is there something I can do to get a list of everything?

I want to be really specific (i.e. graphics card, motherboard, processor, exc.)

Try this command:

sudo lshw

On the current computer, I get output like this:

You can then read the ouptut and cherry-pick the details you want for your signature. Or you can put the whole thing on pastebin and link to it.

see sig, honestly I just used sysinfo to collect all the data :)

You can check out my sig, too. Basically, I like to include the make, model, and specs of the cpu, motherboard, ram, video card, hard drive, and OS.

are you dual booting lucid and karmic?

[Ginsu543]

Yes, at least for now. I have Karmic set up exactly the way I want it (result of many hours of troubleshooting, configuring, and personalizing), so I didn't want to lose it. With 4 TB of hard drive space, I have plenty of room to set aside for many different versions of OSes. I'm sure with several months of use, I will have Lucid configured to the point that I won't use Karmic much anymore. When Ubuntu 10.10 comes out, I'll most likely install it over Karmic. Then I will have Lucid as backup. My only question at this point is whether I want to set up a full Windows install (only reason would be to play games) since my Windows XP virtual machine is working so well in VirtualBox. If I do, then I'll do a triple boot.

OK, how is this?

Seems perfect man. Mines a little different.
