Ernesto,<br><br>grml offers the `grml-hwinfo' package, which has various hardware detection options and saves results to a tarball suitable for saving to a drive, transmitting over a network, etc. &nbsp;Perhaps this will be useful to your friend, with a small persistent live grml system.<br><br>-wgg<br><span style="font-family:Prelude, Verdana, san-serif;"><br><br></span><span id="signature"><div id="no_signature" style="overflow:hidden;"></div></span><span style="color:navy; font-family:Prelude, Verdana, san-serif; "><hr align="left" style="width:75%">On Feb 23, 2011 10:56 PM, Ernesto Domato &lt;edomat@gmail.com&gt; wrote: <br><br>Hi.

<br>Thanks for all.
