I never heard of this and noticed it has not been mentioned/uses in the archives
so I'll throw this out.
Has anyone used this tool before or even heard of it?
FYI,
while searching for info on another issue, I ran across a mention to use
the "lshw" command to show info on a wireless card. It might be of interest
as a generic tool instead of lspci type output.
Here's what my wireless and wired cards shows running this as a user:
lshw -C network
