How Do I Figure out What Motherboard I Have in Linux?

Follow the below steps to know How To Find Out What Motherboard I Have on Linux

1. Using dmidecode (Requires sudo)

   This will display the manufacturer, model, and serial number of the motherboard.

   sudo dmidecode -t baseboard
   

2. Using lscpu (Basic Info)

lscpu | grep "Vendor ID"

This shows the motherboard's manufacturer.

3. Using hwinfo (If Installed)

sudo hwinfo --motherboard

This provides detailed hardware info.

4. Using cat (If /sys/class/dmi exists)

cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/board_{vendor,name,version}

This will show the vendor, name, and version of the motherboard.

If a command doesn’t work, you might need to install the missing package (e.g., sudo apt install dmidecode).
