So i have a AMD CPU with Radeon HD 3200 as integrated graphics, and i recently found a All-In-Wonder AMD Graphics card (pretty old) and used it but im not sure if ubuntu is using it, or if it's still using the Radeon HD 3200. When i look at the info about this computer within ubuntu it says my grahpics is: Gallium 0.4 on AMD RV635. Help?

Check your graphics card:
lspci | grep -Pi 'vga|3d|2d'
Sample output
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK104GLM [Quadro K5000M] (rev a1)
Now get more informations with:
sudo lspci -v -s 01:00.0
Check the entry Kernel driver
An other way:
sudo lshw -c video
Sample output
*-display
description: VGA compatible controller
product: 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller
vendor: Intel Corporation
physical id: 2
bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0

configuration: driver=i915 latency=0
resources: irq:45 memory:c0000000-c03fffff memory:b0000000-bfffffff ioport:3000(size=64)
Check the used driver with
LANG=C sudo lshw -c video | grep configuration
Sample output
configuration: driver=i915 latency=0
And check the details, eg
modinfo i915
