Belarc Advisor for Linux?

Do you guys have anything like that for Linux? What it does is tell you everything about your system down to the serial number of the router you're using. I want to check if my wifi card is working in this laptop my dad gave me---I know there's probably an easier way but I redefine the word "Noob".

There is a great little app that I put on all my installs. It's called inxi and it comes from techpatterns.com. You can find more info about it here: http://www.inxi.org
Here's the output from the computer I'm on now:
[[email protected] ~]$ inxi -F

I know that it comes with the AntiX distro, and the folks at Mint are using it (I do believe that an older version is included with Mint now). We mostly use it when we are helping others on IRC. You can use it to just print out parts, like inxi -G will just print out graphics info. The above output is -F for full, but it even can print out more info, look at inxi -h on the website.
I know that it's not going to print out serial numbers or the mass of info that hwinfo will print out, but, it outputs enough to tell me what graphics card, what driver, eth0 info HD info etc., so I can tell what's up after I do a new install.
Hope this helped.
p.s. I believe the Quassel devs have it in their irc client, and it works well with X-chat and Konversation. Just another thought to share.0
