$ lspci
bash: lspci: command not found
echo ${PATH}
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.1.2:/opt/sun-jre-bin-1.5.0.06/bin:/opt/sun-jre-bin-1.5.0.06/javaws:/usr/games/bin
At least in my system, the lspci binary resides in /usr/sbin, which is
not in ${PATH}
So you should either call lspci as root or issue the explicit command
/usr/sbin/lspci
That said, if you want to use the -v flag of lspci (for extra
verbosity), you should be root, or you will see some fields filled
with <access denied>
