Is there a SuSE Linux utility that will provide a list of the hardware attached to my machine (with /dev references, preferably), similar to what one gets in the Windows System folder? Paul Abrahams

Try the siga program. If it is not already installed, it is one your SuSE disks in package siga-1.003-13. This program prints a report of everything about your system, hardware, software, config files. More than you probably want to know.

I just tried it. Indeed it gives lots of information -- but not the particular pieces of information I was looking for: which serial port is my modem connected to, and what is the corresponding entry in /dev? Paul

Perhaps my version of Yast2 is too old (it's the one from 7.1), but it appears only to have options for setting things, not for examining them passively. Is the newer version of Yast2 more informative? Paul
