pciutils is installed, and that package, according to a google search,

Are there any ways of activating it or any substitues available?
It looks like 10.2 also had this missing.
Not often used, but when you need it.......
And it is on my laptop with Dam Small Linux, without any PCI sockets.
Did it disappear along with the now missing install option since 10.2
where you could select a group of command line utilities for long time
users of
Unix/Linux? GUI is not a viable answer to a lot of needs, especially the
bloat and slowness. And with these things, using a light weight GUI
doesn't solve the choices someone made to delete usefull command line
utilities that are still in other distros (or go back to 9.x - useability
is better than constant updates to things I don't use).
And Kinfocenter is about useless for anything. It displays the results
but - I can't search the data, I can't print it, I can't write it out to a
file, and I can't select a portion to copy to a file. Like I said -
useless!

here:> cat /etc/SuSE-release
openSUSE 10.3 (i586)
VERSION = 10.3
here:> whereis lspci
lspci: /sbin/lspci /usr/share/man/man8/lspci.8.gz
here:> rpm -q --whatprovides /sbin/lspci
pciutils-2.2.6-17
As normal user try:
/sbin/lspci
but functionality is limited if you are not root.
As root it works without /sbin/.
You can try also:
echo $PATH
as normal user and root, to see the difference.
