  Date: Dec 26    Category: Unix / Linux / Ubuntu    Views: 506
  

i am new to Linux (Ubuntu) and would like to explore this operating
system.
i would like to run a shell command or a set of commands to know the
system name, number of CPUs, CPU clock frequency, RAM size, number of
disks.

Can you tell me the commands.

You might be interested in the system monitor.

Available in the Debian repositories.
http://conky.sourceforge.net/

Once installed, the command, conky, will put the info on the
background of the desktop.
The command, conky -o will place the info inside a window.

'sudo lshw' will show you your hardware. There is also a GUI for this in the
repositories called lshw-gtk.

I suppose:

uname -a (system name??)
whoami (name of user)
hostname (for hostname)
df -h (disk free in human readable form)
grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo (memory total as seen by the system)

Google search gave: http://www.pixelbeat.org/cmdline.html

Scroll down for system info.
