To install hardinfo

Please first enable the universe repository:

Open System → Administration → Software sources → [ Tab Ubuntu software ]
enable "Community Maintained open source software (universe)"
Close and confirm the repository reload.

Then open a Terminal from the menu Applications → Accessories → Terminal and type:

sudo aptitude update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo aptitude install hardinfo

give your user password when requested, you don't see nothing when you type it, then press enter.

Then you will find hardinfo in yuor applications menu... but you can run hardinfo from terminal by typing hardinfo and then press enter
