I don't think I have that installed.  At least, I can't seem to find
the command to run that.

Yes, dmesg, /proc, and the like, let me know all about what I have. 
And, to tell you the truth, I didn't think about those when I asked
the question.  But, this doesn't quite meet what I'm wishing for. 
This gives much more info than I want, and information is dispersed
across various points.  What I'd like is for all relevant information
to be collected in one spot, and given in a report format.  Something
I can print out and keep on file.  I'm sending a computer to a granny
user (thanks, Lan) halfway across the country, and I want to have
user-level info on hand in case there are problems.  I may just copy
down information bit by bit from dmesg and ilk.  I'm also going to
take screenshots of the Gnome preference dialogs, so I can walk him
through those if need be.
