I'm not familiar with winmsd so this may not be what you're looking for, but "lspci" lists all the devices found on the PCI bus. If you're looking for what drivers are being used on your hardware, "dmesg" prints out what happened on boot (including the in-kernel drivers that got initialized) and "lsmod" lists the currently loaded modules (driver or otherwise). All of these work best as root :) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
