[aguila at arakus ~]$ su -
Password:
[root at arakus ~]# lsusb
-bash: lsusb: command not found
[root at arakus ~]# rpm -qi usbutils| grep lsusb
[root at arakus ~]#

The scientist's religious feeling takes the form of a
rapturous amazement at the harmony of natural law, which
reveals an intelligence of such superiority that, in

is an utterly insignificant reflection.  This feeling is the
guiding principle of his life and work. 
-- Albert Einstein, Scientist.
