Is there a specific command to get the processor speed and/or general system info under Linux? If so, can someone give it to me?
 
There are various files in the proc file system (usually mounted at [tt]/proc[/tt]) which gives you direct access to the kernel's internal values. For example, CPU information is stored in [tt]/proc/cpuinfo[/tt] and memory information in [tt]/proc/meminfo[/tt].
