OK. If I use the nvidia driver, I do not use YAST to tell this. Maybe
that is why it is not telling me which is active? I usually install from
the nvidiaXXX.sh file and not the RPM. Would the RPM get this set so I
know which is active?

The reason this is important to us is that we order systems from
SuperMicro where the components are always changed on us. We are trying
to sort out a method so we can detect what might differ between
'identical' computers. hwinfo seemed a good choice. We will see how far
it gets us. I expect there will be need to use more specific tools for
some parts of this info collecting.
