I'm not familiar with winmsd so this may not be what
you're looking for, but "lspci" lists all the devices
found on the PCI bus.

If you're looking for what drivers are being used on
your hardware, "dmesg" prints out what happened on
boot (including the in-kernel drivers that got
initialized) and "lsmod" lists the currently loaded
modules (driver or otherwise).

All of these work best as root :)
