Linux api for device description?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Before I resort to digging up the source code, does anyone
happen to know how to get from a device name like "/dev/dvd"
to a description like "Toshiba Model XYZ CDRW"?

I see tools like k3b display that info, but I don't know
off hand the api call or magic /proc/whatever file that
allows me to dig up the description starting at the /dev/
name.
