Not sure if this will help you as I'm not a programmer. &nbsp;To get memory info, the &quot;free&quot; command will give you information on memory and swap. &nbsp;For more details, run &quot;cat /proc/meminfo&quot;. &nbsp;If you run &quot;cat /proc/cpuinfo&quot; that will provide info on the cpu. &nbsp;In the file &quot;/etc/sysconfig/hwconf&quot;, all hardware that is detected, is listed. &nbsp;Hope that helps.

Not sure about .so processes. &nbsp;I use &quot;ps -elf&quot; to show all running processes.

Hello Experts.<br />
<br />
I want to write a program preferably in C using which I can query various Hardware infrastructure present on the machine where Linux is installed, say how much ram does the machine has, processor speed, no of hard disks etc.<br />
<br />
How should I go about doing this.<br />
<br />
Thanks for any help<br />

Hardware Inventory Collection on Linux

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.

Linux

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).

Linux Distributions

Kernel and system programming is the process of creating the software necessary for a computer or device to function and operate other programs. Some operating systems (such as Microsoft Windows) are proprietary, but others, such as the various Linux distributions, are open source.
