I don't know of a GUI way to do this. Check for documents on the "proc"
filesystem. This is a virtual filesystem (not something actually on your
hard drive) that resides at /proc and represents much of what the kernel
knows about your system. It has a variety of "files" in it that you can
view. For instance,
cat /proc/interrupts
will tell you what interrupts are in use, and often by what devices.
