How can I install the Linux version of USBView (the USB device viewer)?
As with most Linux software, you should normally not download USBView using a web browser. Instead, you should normally use an easy-to-use graphical front-end to your distribution's package management system — e.g. the Ubuntu Software Center or similar. This tool can automatically download and install USBView in one step.
On Ubuntu:
- USBView is in the
usbviewpackage.
If you're running Ubuntu on a headless device, you can use lsusb or lshw instead:
- lsusb is in the
usbutilspackage. - lshw is in the
lshwpackage.
