For example: hard-drive size, manufacture etc... BIOS information, screen information (regardless of X, that is the hardware itself), cards that are assigned and the whole information about such cards. Disks of any kind etc... CPU Information (can use the /proc/cpuinfo) Does anyone know or can point me on how to do it ? use DBUS to query HAL. Normally you should get most of the info. HAL is deprecated :(
You can then take a look at its successor, DeviceKit (see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeviceKit ). According to the wiki entry you might also try to take a look at "libudev". I've found a guide here: http://www.signal11.us/oss/udev/ (I haven't read it and thus can't say whether it's good or not).
