listing all working devices in the system

[bahadir]

Hi,

I have a gentoo system that has no fancy graphics (gnome kde etc.) or abstraction tools.
I basically want to list a summary of all the working devices, at least their names (e.g. ac2xxx)
like you do it in windows from control panel->system->device manager.

Any suggestions? I tried manually looking at /proc and /sys but couldn't extract a summarizing list of devices. I need this just to remind myself what devices I am using so that I can configure my kernel with the right driver support.

Thank you,
Bahadir
