What are they?
----------------
GSHAL is a wrapper around HAL, the hardware abstraction layer ( 
http://www.freedesktop.org/Software/hal ),  It allows GNUstep apps 
running on linux to get information about devices, even as they are 
added and removed.

HardwareInformation serves as example of how GSHAL can be used.  It 
displays a tree of the computer's hardware devices along with a 
detailed description.


Prerequisites
----------------
Of course you will need to install hal, which itself needs dbus ( 
http://www.freedesktop.org/Software/dbus ).  Many distributions already 
package them.


Where to get GSHAL and HardwareInformation
------------------
They can get downloaded from ftp://ftp.sgstep.org/pub
