"yum install hwbrowser" then you can run "hwbrowser" or launch it from
the system administration menu ("hardware" in Gnome).

And there's a Gnome HAL tool ("yum install hal-gnome", then you can run
"hal-device-manager", or run it from the same menu, also called
"hardware") that gives even more information.  I can't recall the name
of the package it comes in.

The above stupidity (two different programs listed in the menu as
"hardware") is why I hate the really thick idea of putting entries in
menus with nothing other than generic names.  Take a less in
user-friendliness, you STUPID programmers!  This is a years-old dumb
thing, the time for hinting how dumb that is, is long past.

And for those using KDE, there's something it has for perusing all your
hardware, as well.  But I can't recall its name.
