[SOLVED] command not found - can anyone help a newbie out with this

Hi everyone,
Sorry to be asking such basic information, but I hope you can help...
I just installed Arch...
I am logged in as root and I get this error:
# hwd
-bash: hwd: command not found
For future reference, how should I go about finding out what package(s) I need to install in order to be able to use a particular command?  (in this case, the hwd command)
Also, is there some configuration I may need to perform in order to make a particular command work (in this case hwd) ??
Thank you!

Thanks!
Probably the wiki article for Xorg should be updated as it refers the user to use hwd.  I'll see if I can manage to edit it...  I've never edited a wiki before.  I'm learning all sorts of new stuff today :-)

thanks again!
