hwinfo is a command-line tool that detects and prints hardware information on Linux systems. It shows detailed information per device, including CPU, memory, disks, network, graphics, and USB; --short gives a summary, and specifying a category such as --disk shows only particular devices. It was created by openSUSE and serves a similar purpose to lshw, inxi, and the GUI tool hardinfo.
