Obtener información del hardware existente en Linux

En linux, se puede obtener la información del hardware utilizando una serie de comandos, que funcionan con cuenta de usuario normal.  Todos estos comandos vienen en la instalación por defecto, eso sí, para conocer datos como de la batería y otros manejados por ACPI existe acpitool, que se debe instalar por separado y pueden consultar este post

- cat /etc/redhat-release, muestra la versión de Fedora o CentOS o Redhat Enterprise o Mandriva o ... Suse?? imagino que debe funcionar
[root@note3 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora release 16 (Verne)
