Hardinfo - Device Information Manager for Linux

Hardinfo is a nice GUI tool for displaying hardware and system information. It has the look and feel of MS's device manager.

So if you don't feel like memorizing a bunch of command line commands, such as lspci (list pci devices), lsmod (list kernel moduels), or neofetch (Computer summary). you can install hardinfo and give it a spin. Although, NeoFetch is kinda fun.

Hardinfo should be in the default repositories. To install it on Debian based distros you would type:

sudo apt install hardinfo

Once installed, you can search for it the normal way using the taskbar search. When you search for "hardinfo" . . it may show up as "System Profiler"

Unlike MS's device manager, You CANNOT edit hardware settings with hardinfo. You can only read the system info.

This "Learn Ubuntu Mate" website is a good overview of hardinfo, with lots of screenshots.
