+# Manually Collecting System Information 
+
+When reporting a bug you will be asked to provide some system information
+and your Blender version number. This information can be automatically
+collected and filled out by selecteing `Help > Report a bug` from the
+top of Blender.
+
+However, sometimes Blender won't open, so you can't use these features.
+In which case you will need to collect the information manually.
+To do that, check the guide for your operating system below.

+# Linux System Information 
+
+## Operating System
+
+We need to collect a few pieces of information for the Operating System information
+field. They are the Linux kernel version, CPU architecture, glibc version,
+and display server type.
+
+Follow the steps below to collect the information and combine them together
+in the bug report form like this:
+`Linux-6.8.0-31-generic - x86_64 - glibc2.39 - wayland`
+
+#### Linux Kernel Version
+
+Run `uname -r` in a terminal.
+
+![](./images/linux_get_os_info_kernel.jpg)
+
+#### CPU Architecture
+
+Run `lscpu | grep Architecture` in a terminal.
+
+![](./images/linux_get_os_info_architecture.jpg)
+
+#### glibc
+
+Run `ldd --version` in a terminal and extract the glibc version from the
+first line of the output.
+
+![](./images/linux_get_os_info_glibc.jpg)
+
+#### Display Server
+
+Run `echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE` in a terminal.
+
+![](./images/linux_get_os_info_display_server.jpg)
+
+## Graphics Card
+
+There are two main ways we recommend to collect GPU information on Linux. 
+`glxinfo`, or `lspci` if `glxinfo` isn't avaliable.
+
+[comment]: <> (Use `vulkaninfo` instead of glxinfo once Blender uses Vulkan)
+
+#### glxinfo
+
+Run `glxinfo -B` in a terminal (you may need to install glxinfo from your
+package manager). This will provide you with the GPU name, driver type, and
+driver version of the display GPU (the GPU usually used by Blender).
+Combine these details together and include them on your bug report form like this:
+`AMD Radeon RX 7800XT - Mesa 24.1.0-devel`
+
+![](./images/linux_get_gpu_info_glxinfo.jpg)
+
+#### lspci
+
+Run `lspci -k | grep -EA3 'VGA|3D|Display` in a terminal.
+This will tell you which graphics cards you have. Copy the GPU name
+and include it on your bug report form like this: `AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT / 7800 XT`
+
+![](./images/linux_get_gpu_info_lspci.jpg)
+
+## Blender Version
+
+Follow one of the guides below to obtain Blender version information,
+The information we're intereted in are Blender version, commit date, hash,
+and branch *(Blender 4.2+)*. Collect this information and share it on your
+bug report form like this:
+`Blender 4.2.0, branch: main, commit date: 2024-05-16 20:40, hash: 1558bc7cb428`
