In CentOS virtual machine makes lspci to view hardware information. When using it, it prompts bash: lspci: command not found, most use /sbin/lspci to do this, I found that it is not available under /sbin on my system either. Using yum install lspci shows no such package.

#yum whatprovides */lspci

Matched from:

Filename : /sbin/lspci
