  <para>This tool<footnote>
      <para>You can start this tool from the command line, by typing <emphasis
role="bold">harddrake2</emphasis> as root.</para>
    </footnote> gives a general view of the
hardware of your computer. When the tool is launched, it executes a job to
look for every element of the hardware. For that, it uses the command
<code>ldetect </code>which refers to a list of hardware in
<code>ldetect-lst</code> package.</para>

  <section>
    <title>The window</title>

    <para>The window is divided in two columns.</para>

    <para>The left column contains a list of the detected hardware. The devices are
grouped by categories. Click on the &gt; to expand the content of a
category. Each device can be selected in this column.</para>

    <para>The right column displays information about the selected device.  The
<guimenu>Help -&gt; Fields description</guimenu> gives some information
about the content of the fields.</para>

    <para>According to which type of device is selected, either one or two buttons are
available at the bottom of the right column:</para>

    <itemizedlist>
      <listitem>
        <para><guibutton>Set current driver options</guibutton>: this can be used to
parameterize the module which is used in relation to the device. This must
used by experts only.</para>
      </listitem>

      <listitem>
        <para><guibutton>Run config tool</guibutton>: access to the tool which can
configure the device. The tool can often be accessed directly from the MCC.</para>
      </listitem>
    </itemizedlist>

    <para/>

  <section>
    <title>The menu</title>

    <para><bridgehead>विकल्प</bridgehead></para>

    <para>The <guimenu>options</guimenu> menu gives the opportunity to check boxes to
enable automatic detection:</para>

    <para><itemizedlist>
        <listitem>
          <para>modem</para>
        </listitem>

        <listitem>
          <para>Jaz devices</para>
        </listitem>

        <listitem>
          <para>Zip parallel devices</para>
        </listitem>
      </itemizedlist>By default these detections are not enabled, because they are slow. Check
the appropriate box(es) if you have this hardware connected. Detection will
be operational the next time this tool is started.</para>
