Hello all,
First off I'll admit to not knowing as much as I should about my
system, and am hoping to correct that as I go (that's part of the
reason I'm actually doing it this way). I'm trying to set up X on my
system, and am not entirely sure which video card I have.
You open the case of the PC, remove the graphics card and take a
good look
at it :P
And if you can't see the card, nevermind well enough to open the
case? :P
I can testify that this method does not always work. I had bought a
name brand
video card, but it turned out to be a generic card that did not have a
manufacturers
name, logo or even model number on it, not even a sticker.
lshw usually works. If needed, emerge lshw
