As you can see I am obviously newbie with Ubuntu, and have no idea what my graphic card is, but with info provided, hope you will help me out.

I tried search trough the Additional Drivers application with no success.

So computer is HP Pavilion ze4900, and this is what Terminal told me about my graphics:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device [8086:3582] (rev 02)
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:3084]
Kernel driver in use: i915
Kernel modules: intelfb, i915
00:02.1 Display controller [0380]: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device [8086:3582] (rev 02)
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:3084]

My version of Ubuntu is 12.04.

As you can see in the output of your command you have an Intel 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device, not an external graphics card. – Lucio Feb 2 at 20:56
Thanks, Lucio. But that does not really answers my question where to find driver. But it is good to know the model, huh? – Gdin.Ne Feb 2 at 21:15
@Gdin.Ne no extra drivers needed since (nearly all) drivers come with the system and not separate like Windows does. – Rinzwind Feb 2 at 21:47
But driver may not be compatible with my graphics device? – Gdin.Ne Feb 3 at 15:23
Do you have any graphic issue? Or do you want to install drivers just for preferences? – Lucio Feb 3 at 20:06
