2.1 Probing Your Hardware
Use YaST, if you want to know more about your hardware or if you need
to find out details like vendor and model of a certain hardware to be
able to properly configure it. Here and in the following sections we
assume that you already started YaST (for example, by pressing
Alt+F2
and entering yast2 followed by the root password,
because YaST needs system administrator permissions to change the
system files):
-
In YaST click . Hardware
probings starts immediately and it will take some time until you see
the hardware information tree in a separate window.
-
In the hardware information tree recursively click on the plus icons to
expand the information about a specific device.
-
Click to leave the hardware information
overview.
