Is there any program that show all hardware(e.g. Graphic card NVIDIA GeForce 9600GT, Network card, and so on) on your computer?

There are a couple of command line programs that give you this kind of information, you could try lshw and lspci. For a GUI that nicely displays information from these and other sources, try hardinfo Install hardinfo.

It will appear in the applications menu under System > System Profiler and Benchmarks. As the name suggests, it also offers some benchmarks ;)

Sounds like you're looking for lspci. It's not all hardware; but it is the ones you listed and it's usually the one I want.

(lshw also exists, although I'm not sure if it's installed by default. It's usually more info than I want)

The lshw GUI looks like this: dailypackage.fedorabook.com/uploads/2008-02-28-lshw-gui.png – djangofan Jan 5 '11 at 19:37

The old school method that I use is to type "dmesg" at the system prompt. It will show you the last startup log of the linux machine.
