With a Linux system (Ubuntu), you can use ddcprobe.

run in a termial

sudo apt-get install xresprobe

then

sudo ddcprobe

You'll see lots of info about your graphics card. Then at the end, you'll see

monitorserial: xxxxxxx
monitorname: xxxxxx
monitorrange: xxxxxx

Do you mean the Monitor Make and Model? You can not get the Monitor's serial number, but you can get the make & model once X is running:

you can look for it in /var/log/Xorg.0.log , e.g. grep '--' /var/log/Xorg.0.log or in

There's a software package called read-edid that should help you get to pretty much all information the monitor gives away. The separate tools are called get-edid and parse-edid:

sudo get-edid | parse-edid
