inxi - A newer, better system information script for irc, administration, and system troubleshooters

References

inxi is a full featured system information bash script. It comes pre-installed in Crunchbang, Epidemic, Linux Mint and AntiX. Arch Linux has an AUR inxi package. As of this writing it is not included in the Debian/Ubuntu repos.

For Cathbard's Debian deb package the installation requires 3 or 4 steps, depending followed by invoking the built-in update

  1. sudo apt-get install mesa-utils (This may or may not be sucessfull. If not,)
  2. sudo apt-get -f install (Otherwise you can skip this step)
  3. wget ftp://cathbard.com/binary/inxi*.deb
  4. sudo dpkg -i inxi_1.7.7-1_all.deb (or whatever pkg you wgot)
  5. sudo inxi -U (This updates the script)

There is also a one-liner install which seems to work as well. Run this as root

cd /usr/local/bin && wget -Nc smxi.org/inxi && chmod +x inxi

Check out the install page link above for other options.

After install, as a normal user, run inxi --recommends and see what you're missing. Chances are you will have to apt-get install hddtemp acpi gawk mesa-utils lm-sensors. After inxi-recommends gives a clean bill of health, run inxi -Fxdfulopni or run inxi -h for other options
