Hi coreplayer2
In order to retrieve the PCI ID, people should use the command

--- Code: ---lspci -nn
--- End code ---
The code is shown in the form  nnnn:nnnn  and is enclosed in square brackets.
For the USB ID, the command is

--- Code: ---lsusb
--- End code ---
The code is just to the right of the word  ID  in the same form.
These codes not only identify the  Vendor:Product  of the device in question, they do so in a very concise and
consistent manner. Getting individuals to include these IDs when posting about any hardware problems could
could also be beneficial when it comes to searching the forum for answers.

Thank's I'd forgot about the -nn.  ok added it to the link to the footnotes and extended the notes to each relevant column header

thanks

coreplayer2:
