Hi,
I came across -Nex which looks like a clone of the cpu-z tool for Windows that was very useful.
Anybody had experience of this.?
Info on i-Nex
http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/02/nex-cpu-z-hardware-stat-tool-linux (http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/02/nex-cpu-z-hardware-stat-tool-linux)
There is a reference to "Gambas 3" which a google reveals is a programming/development language/tool. (It's also Spanish for Shrimp.... mmmm gambas al ajillo :) )
There is a cryptic comment from the reviewer "The good/bad news (depending on your preference) is that i-Nex is available to install from a PPA"
The review contains links to:
https://launchpad.net/i-nex (https://launchpad.net/i-nex)
There are links to developer website: (in Polish)
http://i-nex.linux.pl/i-nex-7-4-0/ (http://i-nex.linux.pl/i-nex-7-4-0/)
Then links to the PPA details:
http://i-nex.linux.pl/install/ (http://i-nex.linux.pl/install/)
So before diving in and installing, would see if anybody's got any comments on .it
Also, Install it via PPA? or the .debs on Launchpad.?

Hi altman,
Did not work for me...
I added PPA O.K
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:i-nex-development-team/stable
Then
sudo apt-get update
Gave this:
Fetched 2,718 kB in 9s (286 kB/s)
W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-updates/main/i18n/Translation-en Hash Sum mismatch
W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-updates/universe/i18n/Translation-en Hash Sum mismatch
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
Then Trying the install gave:

Reading state information... Done

What did you pick.?

ah , I picked this link here ;
Ubuntu
Installing from Launchpad PPA
Daily PPA:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:i-nex-development-team/daily
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gambas-team/gambas3
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install i-nex
If you have previously added repository ppa:nemh/gambas3. It is required to remove it and use the repository ppa:gambas-team/gambas3
Hope it will help .

Hi,
Thanks, That worked...
Quite a big install for a Linux App...
I guess it must be the "Gambas3" stuff.
Lots of stuff to see & view like in CPU-Z

Yep , you see it all in there .
Yep , might be Gambas 3 related .
