How do I check system specifications in 15.10?

Question

The accepted answer of the thread How do I check system specifications? is about System Monitor > System in 11.04. However, there is no tab System anymore in the application System Monitor of Ubuntu 15.10. I still want to do the checking by default tools, not by external installations.

How can you check system specifications in Ubuntu 15.10?

Solution

You can find some info under System Settings > Details > Overview. It gives you some details about your RAM, Processor, OS Type and hardrive.

If you want something more complete you can install hardinfo via terminal:

sudo apt-get install hardinfo

It gives you a very complete description about your system.

Have a nice day!
