hardinfo [options]

hardinfo (Hardware Information) is a graphical system information and benchmark tool for Linux. It displays detailed information about hardware components, software configuration, and system resources.
The GUI organizes information into categories including:
- Computer - Summary, operating system, kernel modules, boots
- Devices - Processor, memory, PCI devices, USB devices, storage
- Network - Interfaces, IP connections, routing table
- Benchmarks - CPU, FPU, and memory performance tests
Reports can be generated for documentation or support purposes in text, HTML, or shell variable formats.

-r, --generate-report

Report format: text, html, or shell

Some information requires root privileges. Benchmark results are relative and shouldn't be compared across different hardinfo versions. Hardware detection depends on kernel drivers being loaded.

hardinfo was created by Leandro A. F. Pereira and first released in 2003. It has been a popular system information tool on Linux desktops, providing functionality similar to Windows' System Information utility.
