How do I detect make and model of monitor attached to system?
Issue
- We have many Red Hat enterprise Linux systems in our setup.
- We need to know make and model of the monitor attached to these RHEL systems for inventory purpose.
- Many of these systems are booted in runlevel 3 without X running.
- Is there any way to probe monitor information from command line mode?
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5
