sudo lshw tells me part of this (lshw as a regular user doesn't):

     *-memory
          description: System Memory
          physical id: 2c
          slot: System board or motherboard
          size: 1GB
          capacity: 1GB
        *-bank:0
             description: SODIMM DDR Synchronous
             physical id: 0
             slot: DIMM 1
             size: 512MB
             width: 64 bits
        *-bank:1
             description: SODIMM DDR Synchronous
             physical id: 1
             slot: DIMM 2
             size: 512MB
             width: 64 bits

sudo dmidecode also shows the same kind of information.  I don't think you can
get the memory speed in MHz this way.  A better bet would be to google for the
motherboard's manual.
