Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: hal-device-manager

Hal device manager is hard to use - I am unable to find the Make of the
CPU (AMD Turion(tm) 64 Mobile Technology ML-32) or the Speed of the CPU
from the HAL device manager.

It would be great if the HAL device manager produced a hirearchical
overview of the computer in Human-friendly language, like the command
lshw does.

For finding the Make and Speed of my cpu in lshw, I don't have to look
too far :)

See http://carthik.net/files/acer-5003.html for the output of lshw.

** Affects: hal (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
