AI Thread Summary
To gather detailed system information on a PC running the latest Ubuntu release with 4 MB RAM, various terminal commands can be utilized. For CPU details, commands such as 'lscpu' or 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' provide comprehensive information. To check RAM specifications, the command 'cat /proc/meminfo' is effective. Additionally, BIOS can offer system details without the need to modify any settings. However, for video parameters, further exploration at the OS level is necessary. Reformatting the system is not required for this process.

Thread 'Urgent: Physically repair - or bypass - power button on Asus laptop'
Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
