Benchmark Fedora 13 using HardInfo

Sometimes there is a need to benchmark your machine in order to report bugs or to troubleshoot. In Linux it’s fairly easy to benchmark your system. HardInfo is a small tool which will help you benchmark your system in Fedora 13.

HardInfo can gather information about your system’s hardware and operating system, perform benchmarks, and generate printable reports either in HTML or in plain text formats.

In order to install Hardinfo in Fedora 13, open a terminal window and type the following command:

su
yum install hardinfo

Once installed you can find it under Applications > System Tools > System Profiler and Benchmark

Yeah, the same is happening to me, I think there's a problem with that repository for now, but try it like this:

yum –disablerepo=InstallMedia install hardinfo

Actually, that error happens to me in every yum operation I try. :0

I had the same problem. turned out that i was not connected to the internet through a wired connection. As soon as i plugged in an Ethernet cable and set the system eth 0 to auto connect the internet worked and i was able to use this command.
