Nothing, especially for what is clearly an administrative tasks. Nobody spends all day checking there WiFi chipset; there isn't any reason for anybody to do that more than once [it doesn't change]. /sbin/lspci 07:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller (rev 01) I suppose you CAN do it in a GUI anyway, as this is really just browsing /proc and /sys. Not very pretty though. On modern hardware this isn't pretty any which way - there are so many ways devices attach to the machine... it has gotten to be a bit nuts. Still - this has nothing to do with GNOME. Distributions answer this question, each with their own tool-chain. I agree with anyone who thinks that is sad or unfortunate, but that is how it is. Still, it isn't GNOME. Maybe if you are using GNOME OS. -- Adam Tauno Williams GPG D95ED383 Systems Administrator, Python Developer, LPI / NCLA _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
