You can get hardware information from the hwbrowser program ( in system
tools | Hardware Browser ).

On debian there is a program called hwinfo (you might be able to find an
RPM for Fedora). It gives LOTS of information that isn't always easy to
interpret. They seem to err on the side of giving you too much info
rather than not enough.

I haven't seen anything that gives a clean list of hardware PLUS
software versions though.
