Finally, after loads of trial I found what I needed, a good System info monitor. The webpage is there :
http://hardinfo.berlios.de/HomePage
and a simple
CODE
urpmi hardinfo
will put it on your distro. The GUI is just amazing and it includes a benchmarking utility. The benchmarking can be synchronized with the net and compares your machine with others.
I invite you to try it and why not compare our results, after all, we are nerds!
